“If you have one true friend you have more than your share.” - Thomas Fuller (British clergyman, 1608-1661). Loyalty means being true to an idea, a person, a cause or duty. True friends are hard to come by. It takes a lot of time, effort and commitment to cultivate a close, long-lasting relationship with another person. If you can do that, you’ve accomplished something many people aren’t able to do. It’s hard to trust another person to be there for you no matter what. In the past, you may have been burned by friendships that didn’t work out. Maybe the other person hurt you or disappointed you. It’s not easy to get past that and believe you can count on someone else. You’re a lucky individual if you have one really good friend you can count on. If so, you’ll want to cherish and nurture that relationship, so it grows even stronger with time. If you haven’t had this experience, you can open yourself to the possibility. You can start by being a good friend to at least one person. If you choose wisely, you’ll get back the same degree of loyalty that you show to others.
