We have all kinds of relationships in this life. Some are definitely more meaningful and deep than others. Someone recently asked me about a friend of mine and my response was, "We are friends". She sort of made light about the topic and I joked along. But later that day, I got to thinking. Friendship is the deepest relationship we can really have with one another. If someone is truly your friend, they have your back. They are there for you during the hard times and also the good times. A true friend will be there even when you aren't that lovable or fun to be around. Couples who have been married for decades probably won't tell you romance is more important than their mutual respect and love for each other as friends. I really think friendship is the end goal of every relationship and what every relationship strives to be.
