Stop in for a cup of coffee

A little(lot) off topic. My best friend lost his mom in a violent incident,the moment i found out i was on my way to his side.
I was amazed at how many people avoided speaking to him,not knowing what to say,going out of their way to avoid talking to him. Some friends,eh?
This seems to be the same trait that shows when people come down with a debilitating disease.
I hope i can find it within myself to take care of mom when the situation arises. I know i will be the most likely of 6 siblings.
Yeah. I’ve always found that the old notion that you find out who your friends truly are in times of crisis and need is 100 percent true. I strive to be that guy with my friends, over the years, only two have consistently returned that, hell, one even offered tonight to come stay with my grandmother while my grandfather was in the ER. True friends are worth more than blood related family in my mind.
