There are times when you feel that you can truly approach the world with open arms and take in everything that you see, smell and feel. Other times, you feel that you must keep your arms closed, and be guarded because of foul energies that flow in the the universe. When your mind is open, you can truly see the colors of our world, and all the differences in behaviour of people around you. Sit and absorb your surroundings to acheive a sense of enlightenment within yourself, and you may just see a new light in old friends in your life, and new friends.

You find too that your true friends are the ones that stick with you even through the dire straights. Even when you are down and ground into the dirt, your true friends are there to support you and help bring you back up to where you used to be. Your true friends will help you if you are stranded out in the wilderness, and no one else will come and help you. When you think of having a true frind, really think, would this person go to all ends to help me? Would this person stick by you, and beleive you when everyone else says that you are wrong, even when in your heart, you know you are right?

Love your friends and love your enemies. One who can forgive someone is better off that one who beats someone down. Forgiveness is an act of kindness that not everyone knows how to bestow, and once embraced, it makes you an honorable person.
