THE HEART

 MY FRIEND CALLED ME UP YESTERDAY AFTER LOSING HIS GRANDMOTHER AND HIS CLOSE FRIEND IN A 24 HR. PERIOD. IN HIS VOICE I COULD HEAR AND FEEL THE PAIN AND HIS DETERMINATION TO GET THROUGH THIS DIFFICULT TIME. AFTER GETTING OFF THE PHONE, I COULD FEEL MY HEART BECOMING MORE AND MORE HEAVY. I HAD TO MEDITATE AND PRAY. THE POINT  OF THIS BLOG IS TO REMIND YOU OF JUST HOW IMPORTANT YOU ARE TO YOUR FRIENDS. WHEN YOUR FRIENDS GO THROUGH A TRIAL OR TRAGEDY, YOU ARE ONE OF THE PEOPLE THEY WILL CALL. NOW IM TALKING ABOUT YOUR CLOSE FRIENDS. PEOPLE ARE DRAWN TO CERTAIN PEOPLE. JUST BY HEARING MY WORDS,  MY FRIEND FELT MORE RELAXED AND CALM. I CERTAINLY AM NOT HIS ONLY FRIEND, BUT I WILL ADMIT THAT AT TIMES I HAVE UNDERESTIMATED THE POWER OF BEING A GOOD FRIEND. THE POWER OF JUST LISTENING TO YOUR FRIENDS AND BEING CONCERNED ABOUT THEIR WELLBEING. THIS IS WHAT FRIENDS ARE FOR. MORE LIKE YOUR UNOFFICIAL FAMILY. SO THAT IS WHAT THIS MESSAGE CARRIES. REMEMBER YOUR CLOSE FRIENDS IN THEIR TROUBLED TIMES, BE THERE FOR THEM. THIS GOES OUT TO THOSE WHO CONSIDER ME AS ONE OF THEIR FRIENDS. I JUST WANT TO LET YOU KNOW THAT I HAVE YOUR BACK FOR LIFE AND I HOPE TO BE AN EVEN BETTER FRIEND TO YOU FROM HERE ON OUT. PEACE, CURRY'S CORNER.
