Friendship isn't always easily
described. The Eskimos, they say, have a hundred different words for
snow. Unfortunately, the English language isn't quite as innovative,
though it has vast opportunities to differentiate meaning. Certainly,
Love is one of those opportunities. And so, too, is Friendship.
Instead of different words, however, we're stuck with simple
adjectives. Close friend. Best friend. Childhood friend. Intimate
friend. Trusted friend. Beloved friend. But whether you use adjectives
or different words, few could deny the nearly infinite meaning in such a
simple word.
Friends are special people. We can't pick our family, and we're
sorely limited in the number of them at any rate. Society and mores (and
often our own conscience) dictate we select a single mate. But our
friends can be as diverse and infinite as the adjectives we choose. Our
friends, in a very real sense, reflect the choices we make in life.
