Friends in deed

Life is a paradox when it comes to friends. Its seems more pronounced when you are on your own.. or so it seems to me.

friends who are friends
friends who want to be 'seen' as friends
they really show their worth
at the right place, at the right time…

some really happy for me
some hypocritical

some shadow my daily existence
some turn out to be pains in the butt

some doing me good turns when I least expect it
some turning the other way when I take up offers of help

Do we need friends in our lives?
For the most part, yes,
but handle with care!
