“But friendship is precious, not only in the shade, but in the sunshine of life, and thanks to a benevolent arrangement the greater part of life is sunshine.”
Friendship is a gift in all seasons of life. It’s not just there to comfort us in sorrow, but also to amplify our joy. The best friendships don’t wait for hard times—they show up in celebrations, laughter, and everyday peace. They make life’s sunshine even brighter. That’s what makes them truly precious.
We often think of friends as those who help us through pain, but they also make the good times more meaningful. The quote highlights a beautiful truth: most of life, thankfully, is filled with sunshine. And in those moments, friends are there to share in the light. Their presence turns ordinary days into golden ones.
