In kindergarten your idea of a good friend was the person who let you have the red crayon when all that was left was the ugly black one.
In primary school your idea of a good friend was the person who went to the bathroom with you; held your hand as you walked through the scary halls; helped you stand up to the class bully; shared their lunch with you when you forgot yours on the bus; saved a seat on the back of the bus for you; knew who you had a crush on and never understood why.
In secondary school your idea of a good friend was the person who let you copy their social studies homework; went to that“cool”party with you so you wouldn’t wind up being the only fresher there; did not let you lunch alone.
In pre-university your idea of a good friend was the person who gave you rides in their new car; convinced your parents that you shouldn’t be grounded; consoled you when you broke up with Nick or Susan; found you a date to the prom or went to the prom with you (both without dates); helped you pick a university and assured you that you would get into that university; helped you deal with your parents who were having a hard time letting you go.
On the threshold of adulthood your idea of a good friend was the person who was there when you just couldn’t deal with your parents; assured you that now that you and Nick or you and Susan were back together, you could make it through anything; just silently hugged you as you looked through blurry eyes at 18 years of memories; and reassured you that you would make it in university as well as you had these past 18 years; and most importantly sent you off to university, making you feel being loved.
Now, your idea of a good friend is still the person who gives you the better of the two choices; holds your hand when you’re scared; helps you fight off those who try to take advantage of you; thinks of you at times when you are not there; reminds you of what you have forgotten; helps you put the past behind you but understands when you need to hold on to it a little longer; stays with you so that you have confidence; goes out of their way to make time for you; helps you clear up your mistakes; helps you deal with pressure from others; smiles for you when you are sad; helps you become a better person...
And most importantly loves you!
上幼兒園時，你認為最好的朋友就是那個寧願自己用難看的黑蠟筆，也要讓你用紅蠟筆的人。
在小學時，你認為最好的朋友就是陪你一起去洗手間；牽著你的手一起走恐怖的走廊；幫助你勇敢地抵抗班上那些欺淩弱小者；你把午飯忘在校車上，就與你共享他的午飯；在校車的後麵給你留個座位；知道你大膽地暗戀誰，卻從不明白為什麽的那個人。
在中學時，你認為最好的朋友就是讓你抄他的社會調查作業；陪你去參加“酷”派對，以便讓你在見到陌生人時不會緊張；不會讓你獨自進餐的那個人。
在大學時，你認為最好的朋友就是讓你搭坐他的新車；勸說你的父母，不能讓你總窩在家裏；當你跟尼克或是蘇珊的感情破裂時安慰你；為你找一個舞會上的舞伴或是陪你一起去（你們兩個都沒有舞伴）；幫助你選擇一所你一定能進入的大學；幫助你勸慰不放心你去外地上學的父母的那個人。
在成年後，你認為最好的朋友就是當你不能安排父母時，在你身邊陪你；當你和尼克或是蘇珊重修舊好時，使你確定你們一定能度過所有難關；當你含淚追憶過去18年的生活時，靜靜地給你一個擁抱；使你自信能度過曾經的18年，成功完成大學學業；最重要的是，在你上大學時送你，讓你感覺到有人愛著你的那個人。
現在，你仍然認為最好的朋友是當你麵臨兩種選擇時，給你最好的那一個答案；當你感到不安時，緊握你的手；幫助你抗爭那些試圖侵犯你利益的人；當你不在時會想著你；提醒你忘記了東西；幫助你走出過去的陰影，但是當你需要在過去中逗留片刻時，也會表示理解；陪著你，使你更有信心；不知疲倦地為你爭取時間；幫助你糾正錯誤；幫助你緩解來自他人的壓力；當你傷心時給你微笑；幫助你變得更優秀的那個人……
並且，最重要的是他愛著你！
