Love and friendship

Love from friendship - this love leads to
light, to peace and to deep joy.
This love never harms people.
It does not possess for itself.
It leaves the otehr person free.
And when it finds expression
in physical tenderness,
it stays pure.
But when one person wants
to possess another for himself alone,
for his own satisfaction,
he destroys the person he thinks he loves.
And destroys the friendship.
True, you will never be capable
of a totally unselfish friendship.
But you must always keep trying..
