Acceptance

Acceptance is the universal currency of real friendship... It does not warp or shape or wrench a person to be anything other than what they are.

Love is appreciating someone - even when you know that they are not perfect.

Yes, it's wonderful to be comfortable with a true friend who isn't the slightest bit judgmental! Thanks for reminding us, 4woody.

There is no comfort like genuine acceptance.

What an excellent quote and so very true. Thank you for sharing.

Oh I totally agree. I find making friends incredibly difficult and am okay admitting I have just three really wonderful ones.

My children and grandchildren are not included in my count though of course we all are close and loving. I miss them all so much. A bit off topic - My four year old grandson told me rather solemnly on the phone the other day ‘ Nanny you can’t come and see us because Ivy and me are dirty little monkeys and you might catch something bad. You must stay inside or in the garden. ‘ It made me laugh so much. Wishing you a good day.

Talking grandkids is always the right subject. 😄 I find a lot of acceptance with children, including my grandkids. Acceptance is part of what makes them so wonderful. Fun and funny is another wonderful piece.
