dew drops

This is me, my views and my life.
My story is not mine, so is the plot.
But come with me and take the plunge,
Swim in the ocean of life.
Make some ripples throughout eternity
And praise Him again and again for this wonderful opportunity!

a true loving Friend

they say:

-->a friend in need is a friend indeed.-BC. Quintus Ennius, Caxton's Sonnes of Aymon, and from 'Everyman'

but i say He is even a good friend in the good times while always with me in the bad times.

-->True friendship consists not in the multitude of friends, but in their worth and value.- Ben Jonson

and I say He is worth far more than eyes can see! He is my only friend when the world turns its back on me.

-->Truth springs from argument amongst friends.-David Hume

but I say there is truth in every bit of Him and He knows every bit of me; even if I hide and even if I get mad at Him and share with Him my anger, He remains as one true friend who is always there to guide me despite my stubbornness and unfaithfulness.

-->It is difficult to say who do you the most mischief: enemies with the worst intentions or friends with the best. -E.R. Bulwer-Lytton

i say, friends with the best... I am only human but He understands. and yeah, it is more like I do Him the most mischief!

-->A faithful friend is a strong defense: and he that hath found such an one hath found a treasure.-Ecclesiasticus 6:14

I found a treasure! He is my ROCK!

-->When we honestly ask ourselves which person in our lives means the most us, we often find that it is those who, instead of giving much advice, solutions, or cures, have chosen rather to share our pain and touch our wounds with a gentle and tender hand. The friend who can be silent with us in a moment of despair or confusion, who can stay with us in an hour of grief and bereavement, who can tolerate not knowing, not curing, not healing and face with us the reality of our powerlessness, that is a friend who cares. -Henri Nouwen

Apart from knowing everything about me. He does not come in front of me and slaps me in the face and drag me to things that I must do. He waits patiently for me to call upon Him after the embrace He gives when I'm in tears.

-->The most I can do for my friend is simply to be his friend. I have no wealth to bestow on him. If he knows that I am happy in loving him, he will want no other reward. Is not friendship divine in this? - Henry David Thoreau

He is divine ^_^. He is happy to know that I love Him, and despite that fact of my imperfectness, He showers blessings upon me, my family, my other friends... He does things for my own good.

-->You can't shake hands with a clenched fist.-Indira Gandhi

He offers his arms wide open!

-->A true friend is the most precious of all possessions and the one we take the least thought about acquiring.-La Rochefoucauld

Aye! Aye!

-->
It's the friends you can call up at 4 a.m. that matter.-Marlene Dietrich

Well, He is available twenty-four seven !

-->
Love is the only force capable of transforming an enemy into friend.-Martin Luther King, Jr.


and through His love, I am SAVED!
