here's one of my favorite mottos:
"a good friend will bail you out of jail. a true friend will be in the cell with you and say, 'man, we ****ed up.'"

A lot of people have a misunderstanding of the word 'friend'. What most people call a friend is merely a friendly acquaintance. There are very few real, or true, friends in our lives, because real friendship requires one to go the extra mile for a friend, & then look to see if they can do anything more. True friendship is true love. This is a bond that transcends time & circumstances. The Bible says that one would willingly die for a friend. If friendship meets that criteria, how do each of us measure up in the 'true friend' department? And anything less is not really friendship at all. So how many friends do you have? But most important, to whom are you truly a friend?

A true friend will be there in your times of need... Even if you haven't had time to talk, or meet up much... They are the ones you can share your problems with, and vis-versa. I have a friend who just lost a relative, we haven't talked much, but when I heard about his loss... I was there within the hour to be there for the family. My friend, and his wife, (also a friend of mine) did the same in a similar situation of mine.

a true friend will always be there for you next to your side at all situations good or bad. A true friend is someone that would give his/her life just so that you could live another day. one that will aid and help you in all your problems.

When you down and out, when EVERYONE walks away, a true friend stays.
Someone who listens when you need to talk, someone who give you sound advice when you need one.

A true friend is the person who reads your horoscope after reading their own...even when you aren't around.

A true friend is a person who will not leave, should you face illness or misfortune.
