After a dayls work, I come home to you and give you an account of what I have done and what has been done to me since I last saw you. I am sincere with you. I have dislikes, and I tell them to you. I hear a joke, and come, laughing. to tell it to you, Someone hurts meg I come to weep on your shoulder. Yeu sympam thize with me. I am without false appearances and affoctations when I am alone with you. I think aloud to you as I think to myself. Only to our friends do we unbend and'are entirely at ease. Only to you do I appems my natural self, without putting on a false front, as I must do to, please other people. I must not let others know that a climb up Tuckerman's Ravine means more to me than to hear Tschaikowsky's Fifth. Only to you do I tell that a hot dog and a campfire mean more to me than a Sunday dinner with bright, green parsley on the meat platter. You accept me at my worst. Many of my acquaintances are with me when I am sweet and kind to them. You are with me always, From me you take harsh and bitter words and still can look at me kindly. They who love me when I am loving and kind and sweet of disposition--they are my acquaintances. You can take my inner self, my unapprcciating disposition, and all that goes with it. You can hear my troubles, unjustified criticisms, and my never-ending sorrows, and you still will love me. You are my friend.
