True Friends??
What defines a true Friend?... somebody emotionally close: somebody who trusts and is fond of another...it is hard to find true friends in this life...but once you find one it seems that you have so much fun with them, can share most everything, and relate with them...as these last couple months have gone by I have been really aware of who mine and Bart's friends are...I am the first to admit with life as hectic as it is it is hard to spend time with your friends, but I wouldn't deem how much you see a person the level of friend they are..you can tell when you have a true friend that cares and feels the same about you....Bart is the most kind person that one will meet and would literally give you the shirt off his back...it amazes me what he will and what he has done for other people....just for them to turn around and talk about him and basically be rude...but isn't it the best when this all happens and you know about it..but they try and be nice to you to your face..that's the real kicker...I know I have only a few real friends in this life time...my husband..my Molly Ann..my sister...my mom...and the rest of my immediate family....it's interesting as we get older we still have the urge to put people down only to make yourself feel better...so to those that may have said something hurtful about my husband I am sorry that you need to cut someone else down who has helped you in a personal and professional way to make yourself feel better....

You're right...true friends are hard to find and once you find them, they are there for life! It really is amazing how you think you're friends with someone, and then you find out that really isn't the case at all...I hope to meet Bart and your cute little Molly soon :)
Wow! I couldn't have said it better myself!!! It has been one of the most difficult life lessons I've learned over the past few years...loving and trusting someone then realizing they for some reason don't return the same feelings! I feel like I'm a pretty nice person...so it's been really hard for me to have all of these bad feelings inside about the people I used to think were my "true friends". The great blessing I have received from that though is my relationship with my husband and my children is the single most important relationship that I need to put all of my energy into. If I'm happy there...then having friends is just an added bonus...but I do know that no matter what...I still need to be a good, kind person who genuinely cares about people. If I lose that characteristic...then the ones who hurt me have truly won. I hope you guys know that we love you and would do anything for you and your family. You are wonderful people and the ones who have hurt you are the losers in this situation!

"True friendship is seen through the heart...not through the eyes."
I am kind of going threw the same thing here in cali... it sucks. I know Bart is an amazing guy if you married him. I am sorry that someone was not nice. You can only hope karma will get them soon.
I once learned that when you find fault in others or talk bad about other people it is really yourself that you need to evaluate. They said if you have a low self esteem it somehow makes you feel better to find fault in others. I think people are just jealous of Bart and it is their way of making themselves feel better! I know from personal experience that Bart would give anybody the shirt off his back if it came down to it. He is the most genuine person I know. We are lucky to have you guys as friends!
