What is a “True” Friend?
What are friends? Friends are supporters, admirers, caregivers and sometimes turn into lovers. Friends are the first relationships and interactions we make when we first leave our families to go to school. Friends teach us from a young age that you can’t trust everyone and not to always expect things in return. Friends are individuals we believe to be similar to us and we are comfortable with the agreement we all have, to be friends. Friends are sometimes temporary and your path and theirs split at different points. A true friend never loses the connection you and that person had made; you could hangout for the first time in decades and it would feel like High School all over again.

Emotions & What Follows
Emotions are natural feelings that every person feels, emotions drive anger, help express happiness and joy, show passion and empathy and or sympathy towards something or others.

The will of Life & the passion of Death
The will for life and the passion for death, what that means I believe for people of honor and that have a logistical understanding of life and death see that the will or want of life is a luxury to have first and foremost; while death becomes the climax and rejoice of those that understand and are comfortable with the fact of such a “glorious sensation”. The Spartans main look at life is to live life to complete fulfillment and when the end comes, embrace the times had and the moments to come; they pushed their own comfortability with death farther than where I believe most would ever venture to be. Leonidas I was the King of Sparta during the Battle of Thermopylae, Greece in 480 BC and led the noble 300 Spartans to the “Hot Gates” a small narrow passageway where Southern and Northern Greece meet; it is called that because of the natural hot springs that are in the area and at the time was believed to be the entrance to Hell or Hades.
