    Exclamation I just read this quote at a store today

    Having a friend means taking a risk.

    Do you agree with that statement. I agree 100%.

    You?

    I agree whole-heartedly. With friendship, you have to be vulnerable.

    I agree but, isn't anything that is worth much a risk?

    Totally agree. You have to put in trust and there is always the risk of betrayal.

    Yes, you take the good with the bad the ups with the downs everything in between. You leave yourself wide open to feel so many things. I think friendships are one of the best parts about life and living. Definate leap of faith.

    Yep, I agree.

    That brings to mind the Garth Brooks song "The Dance"... he says that (paraphrasing here, as the CD is in my car, and it's raining!) he could have missed the pain, but he'd have missed the dance... meaning he'd have missed the good and the bad in life.

    I agree. There is nothing like having good friends,even when there are hard times between you.
