Your friend is your needs answered

Lead me from dreaming to waking.
Lead me from opacity to clarity.
Lead me from the complicated to the simple.
Lead me from the obscure to the obvious.
Lead me from intention to attention.
Lead me from what I'm told I am to what I see I am.
Lead me from confrontation to wide openness.
Lead me to the place I never left,
Where there is peace, and peace
- The Upanishads

*note* Kahlil Gibran talks..aghh.the beauty of friendship...if I recall how many friends betrayed me,I don't have hairs on my head to count.
Please..believe in friendship.
When I am done with my friends...only the enemies will remain standing tall....
As the proverb says,,Oh Lord..protect me from friends...for the enemies are like ants around me,but I'll take care of them..JUST protect me from friends,oh GODs if you can!!
The funny thing is that the enemies are your projection.
Your friends are your projection too..unless they resonate with the beauty of their inner spirit which is ONE in all of us.
Never trust anybody,said the mahayogi..but trust your spirit within,which is ONE with friends or enemies...but first,you have to discover your true self,of course.
So if you find a good friend..keep it..for he is allowing you to see yourself,and himself in the same time...

On Friendship
Kahlil Gibran

Your friend is your needs answered.
He is your field which you sow with love and reap with thanksgiving.
And he is your board and your fireside.
For you come to him with your hunger, and you seek him for peace.


When your friend speaks his mind you fear not the "nay" in your own mind, nor do you withhold the "ay."
And when he is silent your heart ceases not to listen to his heart;
For without words, in friendship, all thoughts, all desires, all expectations are born and shared, with joy that is unacclaimed.
When you part from your friend, you grieve not;
For that which you love most in him may be clearer in his absence, as the mountain to the climber is clearer from the plain.
And let there be no purpose in friendship save the deepening of the spirit.
For love that seeks aught but the disclosure of its own mystery is not love but a net cast forth: and only the unprofitable is caught.


And let your best be for your friend.
If he must know the ebb of your tide, let him know its flood also.
For what is your friend that you should seek him with hours to kill?
Seek him always with hours to live.
For it is his to fill your need, but not your emptiness.
And in the sweetness of friendship let there be laughter, and sharing of pleasures.
For in the dew of little things the heart finds its morning and is refreshed.
