A letter of friendship
My friend,
It's always nice to have you near and to enjoy your company and your loyalty; it's important to have the friendship and affection of someone with whom we can share our joys and sorrows, and discuss our problems without fear or reservations.
But, the best part of knowing someone like you is not to feel obliged to do something when we're together, is to be able to watch TV without saying a word, not feeling bored or wanting to be by yourself; and I miss you when you're far away, taking care of your life while I take care of mine.
To be a friend is to be able to enjoy the best things the other person has to offer, to recognize their faults but to know they are bearable and, on the other hand, to be a friend is to offer our virtues with all the generosity in the world and to live without masks or farces to hide our faults, habits or differences.
I've been thinking about writing to you for a while now, to tell you about the meaning of friendship, something that surrounds us in such a natural way that we don't even bother much to understand what it truly means.
Maybe I can't really express that meaning, but it's good to know that there's someone supporting us, even if sometimes they don't fully agree with what we are thinking or doing and they don't hesitate to show their point of view. That's what true friends are like, because they know that a different opinion will not change a deep feeling of mutual and sincere trust.
My dear friend, always count on me and receive a kiss from
