...finish the sentence. What does the word friend mean to you? Is it a person whom you share common beliefs with? one whom you can agree to disagree with? A person who shares similar interests? Someone who is more than a face? of the same race? member of the same church/group/religion/whatever? Someone who can finish your sentences? a face that can disappear as quickly as it appeared? A needy person who is only there for a handout? or one who you keep around just incase you need to call on them? A free babysitter/housekeeper? a free mecahnic/carpenter/lawyer? a free counselor/tutor/doctor? How far and thick is the line drawn between a friend and aquaintence? Have you had an instant connection or does it take some time? Just curious...and please use as many of your own words as possible:)

A friend indeed is not a double edged saw but the one who rally behind you when in need. He or she is caring and you can always rely on. Non- betrayal and for that matter you share secrets. There is of course a very thick line between a friend and aquaintance. A friend knows you very well unlike aquaintance. I personally have enjoyed the fruit of true friend.
