What quality do you value most in a friend?

If the world turned dark, cold and toxic I would need light, heat and a healing tonic. If I knew of a world where darkness, cold and toxicity had set in threatening life I would want to be there for that world’s residents. The sun, our friend, perfectly positioned to light and warm this planet, is the kind of friend I value and want to be.

Just a few minutes exposure does it

It used to be perfectly ok to be in the sunlight all day but now that is dangerous. Friends can also be a bit much too, so the right amount of exposure to a reliable friend is exactly what I value most. I call that metered reliability.
