Friendship Thinking My Best Friend

More From Judith Guest

A friend is more than a therapist or confessor, even though a friend can sometimes heal us and offer us god's forgiveness. a friend is that other person with whom we can share our solitude, our silence, and our prayer. a friend is that other person with whom we can look at a tree and say, "isn't that beautiful," or sit on the beach and silently watch the sun disappear under the horizon. with a friend we don't have to say or do something special. with a friend we can be still and know that god is there with both of us.
Beautiful Beach Prayer
You can't be a good person when you're writing and a bad person to your husband or a bad friend. you can't be a jerk in order to be a good writer. you can't say, "i'm too busy writing to be political." you are one person. you are the same person in every aspect of your life, and you have to be a responsible person in every aspect of your life.

Mrs forrester ... sat in state, pretending not to know what cakes were sent up, though she knew, and we knew, and she knew that we knew, and we knew that she knew that we knew, she had been busy all the morning making tea-bread and sponge-cakes.

I sleep during the day. i still dream about drinking and drugs. sometimes i wake to a hang-over, sometimes i wake to a trickle of blood from my nose, sometimes i wake scared and shaking. i read, go to museums and visit lilly in the afternoon. sometimes i read to her, sometimes i talk to her, sometimes i just sit and remember the times, remember the times, remember the times." (james frey, pg.119)

People get sick and sometimes they get better and sometimes they don't. and it doesn't matter if the sickness is cancer or if it's depression. sometimes the drugs work and sometimes they don't. sometimes the drugs work for a while and then they stop. sometimes the alternative stuff works and sometimes it doesn't. and sometimes you wonder if no outside interference makes any difference at all; if an illness is like a storm, if it simply has to run its course and, at the end of it, depending on how robust you are, you will be alive. or you will be dead.

Reuven listen to me. the talmud says that a person should do two things for himself. one is to acquire a teacher. do you remember the other." "choose a friend," i said. "yes. you know what a friend is, reuven? a greek philosopher said that two people who are true friends are like two bodies with one soul." i nodded. "reuven, if you can, make danny saunders your friend." "i like him a lot, abba." "no. listen to me. i am not talking about only liking him. i am telling you to make him your friend and to let him make you his friend.

The teacher is of course an artist, but being an artist does not mean that he or she can make the profile, can shape the students. what the educator does in teaching is to make it possible for the students to become themselves.

Tonight, somewhere in america, a young person, let's say a young man, will struggle to fall to sleep, wrestling alone with a secret he's held as long as he can remember. soon, perhaps, he will decide it's time to let that secret out. what happens next depends on him, his family, as well as his friends and his teachers and his community. but it also depends on us - on the kind of society we engender, the kind of future we build.

Many spiritual teachers - in buddhism, in islam - have talked about first-hand experience of the world as an important part of the path to wisdom, to enlightenment.
Spiritual Teacher Buddhism
In the circle where i was raised, i knew of no one knowledgeable in the visual arts, no one who regularly attended musical performances, and only two adults other than my teachers who spoke without embarrassment of poetry and literature — both of these being women. as far as i can recall, i never heard a man refer to a good or a great book. i knew no one who had mastered, or even studied, another language from choice. and our articulate, conscious life proceeded without acknowledgement of the preceding civilisations which had produced it.
