Void Thoughts

In a life filled with all sorts of uncertainties,
a loyal friend—
a must-have!

Nothing is as dear,
as precious,
as wonderful—
as the company of a friend.

One you can count on,
confide in,
be yourself with.

For in their presence,
the noise quiets,
the heart feels seen.

And nothing is more honorable
than being a loyal friend to another,
for friends are the gentle flavors of life—
adding warmth, laughter,
and meaning to our days.

To be called a friend,
and relied on as one,
is no small thing—
it’s a blessing,
a gift,
a shared promise of trust.

But you know all this
for you are someone’s friend,
and you know
how deeply you value being one.
