i'll be there for you

It stays in my heart, the phrase - I'll be there for you. It's not because of someone saying it to me, instead, it is the other way round. I had learnt a great lesson about it and it has been etched in my head ever since then.

Though I can only remember vaguely about the whole conversation that we had on that day, but I still remember your response after hearing I said "don't worry, we'll be there for you". I was earnest in saying that, at that moment, to show you that you still have your friends supporting you. But I do understand when you explained to me that no one can always be there for another person all the time, or at any time a person is in need. I guess you had been in such situation before and that explains why you had such a reaction.

But ever since then, I was careful not to say that phrase out, without thinking twice. A promise is meant to be kept, not to be broken. Although in our daily lives, we would always say out comforting word to our friends or family when they are down, do hold true to what you say. Meant what you say.

To my friend, H, wherever you are, whatever you do, all the best to you.
