Mar 02, 2024 Dem Boys Seh, Features / Columnists, News

Kaieteur News – A friend in need is a friend indeed. Nuff times when yuh deh bad, is only yuh friend does come to yuh rescue. Dat’s wat friends are for.

As de lyrics of de song goes:

“Keep smiling, keep shining

Knowing you can always count on me, for sure

That’s what friends are for

For good times and bad times

I’ll be on your side forever more

That’s what friends are for.”

Some friends come with benefits. But a friend who is only a friend because of the benefits is no friend at all.

Last Sunday, a man lose he good friend. He talk how de friend abuse de friendship. Well is mostly yuh friends and yuh other loved ones wah does stab yuh in yuh back. Dat is de way of de world.

Dem boys know wat it is to lose a dear friend. Even though yuh vex with dem, yuh does miss dem company. In yuh lonely hours, yuh does remember de good times yuh bin had together and yuh does lang fuh dem times fuh return.

We all does need someone to lean on. And dere is no better shoulder to support yuh burdens dan dat of a friend. As Bill Withers did sing:

“Lean on me

When you’re not strong

And I’ll be your friend

I’ll help you carry on…”

But as de saying goes, once bitten, twice shy. Sometimes de best ah friends does gat to part.

Talk Half! Leff Half!
