A friend who stands

with you in times of pressure

is more valuable than a hundred

friends who will stand

with you at times of pleasure – Unknown

Have you had a situation where you found yourself in the pit, screaming out for help to whoever can hear without uttering a word out of your lips? Groaning in pain, self-guilt, and pity for yourself? You seek for a way out but you find all doors locked.

You reach out to the few friends you have but something seems wrong…. they make excuses for not being able to help. If you are in this situation, first thank God for the tough time that has come to visit you because it means whatever hardship you find yourself in will not deter your progress or success in life, it will only toughen and prepare you for the people that will surround you at your greatest moment coming soon.

Now you will know who your real friends are, the ones that love you without judging or condemning you, the ones that want you to progress in life, the ones that feel your pain and will do anything to help you get rid of it.  Just like this quotes say…

Without fake friends, you will not know the real ones – Unknown

God sometimes removes people from your life to protect you, don’t run after them – Unknown

You always knew after shitty things happen, who your real friends really were – Jodi Picoult
