My Oath To You
I have a cousin that sends the usual religious chain letter stuff around. I don’t mind the ones that she sends to me because the stories that are in them are great and wonderful. I’m not the kind of person that does the “forward this to 10 of your friends to capture an angel’s wish” or anything like that.
However, she sent me one today that included this portion at the bottom. I liked it so much that I thought I would share it with you here.
MY OATH TO YOU
When you are sad…..I will dry your tears.
When you are scared…..I will comfort your fears.
When you are worried…..I will give you hope.
When you are confused…..I will help you cope.
And when you are lost….And can’t see the light, I shall be your beacon…..Shining ever so bright.
This is my oath…..I pledge till the end.
Why you may ask?….Because you’re my friend.
Signed: GOD
This may be an oath from God, but it sums up fairly closely how I feel about friendship. Everyone has their family, and you usually don’t get to choose them. Friends are a different matter. They are the people that you choose to be as close to you (or closer!) as family. If you’re my friend, I’m there for you no matter what.
