A real friend is not measured by how loud they cheer when life is good, but by how steady they stand when everything falls apart. I love this quote by Walter Winchell because it captures the truth so perfectly.
Many people will walk beside you when you're winning, but only a few will still be there when the road gets rough.
True friendship reveals itself in silence and sacrifice. It shows up in the small gestures--checking on you, praying for you, or simply sitting with you when words aren't enough.
These are the people who don't need a reason to stay; they stay because they care.
When the crowd disappears and only one or two remain, that's when you know who your real friends are. And in that moment, you realize that even one genuine friend is worth more than a hundred fair-weather ones.
