On real friendship

Many people seem to confuse socializing for friendship. If you have one true friend in the whole world, you are blessed. I'm referring to a friend who can actually put off everything for you, not just saying that they will. Many can say things and make promises they could never fulfill. In fact, often one can do more for that person than the person who claims they will. Even Jesus said to walk an extra mile. He didn't say one had to walk any further. Perhaps, some romanticize relationships to higher expectations than even Jesus ever did. Jesus did say turn the other cheek, but he didn't say to continue turning it. In fact, he said one should own a sword and that two swords were enough. Huge messages when one thinks about it. Blessings to all!
