Friendship is a wonderful thing.

Now I know that this isn't news but hey my brain works in mysterious ways and I routinely find myself letting my mind wander to new and weird wonderful places and I end up having random thoughts and sometimes I like to share those thoughts with completely strangers aka YOU GUYS!

Don't you love how I'm so big headed that I just PRESUME that people are reading this blog? I mean seriously now, who am I? I'm no one special so why would anyone really want to read my ramblings? Maybe I should come up with a loyalty scheme, umm say you read consistently for 3 weeks and I'll send you a t'shirt saying "I'm a wannbe Fatologist!!"
Right back on topic...I was driving to the shops yesterday when I saw three VERY large birds flying together way up high in the sky (oh lord, it rhymes and NO this is not going to be a rhyming poem that is pure coincidence and it shall cease NOW!). I noticed as I was driving (yes I'm talented and can both drive and take my eyes off the road to look upwards - and I'm yet to cause an accident in doing this!) that one of the birds was struggling to keep up with the other two, it seemed to need to take alot more "flaps" to keep up pace...and yet the other birds made sure they hung back enough to stay as a group, they compensated for one bird not being strong enough to fly as well as it should. It made me think how good friendships do this. If a friend is down and not feeling like they should, good friends will rally around and try to bolster them, offer them support and best of all, they won't fault the weaker person of the friendship, they will look at you just like you're you, no one different in any way. True friends don't see your faults or weakness they just see you!
