The greatest healing therapy is friendship and love.

Friendship is essentially a partnership.

Experts on romance say for a happy marriage there has to be more than a passionate love. For a lasting union, they insist, there must be a genuine liking for each other. Which, in my book, is a good definition for friendship.
