Exchanged Vulnerabilities

.

“What was more,

they had taken

the first step

toward genuine

friendship.

They had exchanged

vulnerabilities.”

.

~ Arthur C. Clarke

.

A good friend knows where

all of your buttons are located

and respects you enough not to push them.

The buttons are those fears, emotions,

likes and dislikes, those things, real or imagined,

that make you uniquely you.

Trust, the foundation of friendship,

I will not expose your vulnerabilities

if you do not expose mine

and let us be friends forever.

Friendship is exchanged vulnerabilities.

Friendship is a priceless gem that is to be valued and protected.
