Henri J.M. Nouwen Quote
A real friend is someone who doesn’t walk off when there are no solutions or answers, but sticks by you and remains faithful to you. It often turns out that the one who gives us the most comfort is not the person who says, Do this, say that, go there; but the one who, even if there is no good advice to give, says, Whatever happens, I’m your friend; you can count on me.
