The power of friendship

Friendship what does it mean to you? In life if we are fortunate enough, we are rewarded with the powerful gift of friendship in which our paths cross with a special person we are bound and destined to have a great human relationship with; where we have the granted fortune to go on a magical journey in life paired with that particular person through a wonderful shared bond.In life's tough times many of us are blessed with a support system people perfect for getting us through tough times and all in all making our lives that much better.
We should expect that to come with our families because as we are connected to them in one way shape or another, and born into instant relationship with one family member to the next where as a  friendship however is not one that were instantly born with but one that were instead pleasantly given at any moment. A friendship can occur at any time, and at any place, and with a strong bond can last a lifetime.
A Family is suppose to be there for you, where as true friends choose to be. Friends can impact people's lives in a major way whether it be through their consistent support, through their appreciation of you through their understanding of what makes you special that you may not see but they easily do; a friend can both value who you are, all while treasuring their special relationship with you, and the best kind of friends will be sure to stick around for the long haul.
A friendship and especially the best kinds are never forced, never difficult to maintain, and consistently provides a meaningful value to our everyday lives. We can tell a friend anything that's on our minds and recipricate that right back to them, They can comfort us in our most emotionally distraught life periods and  we value them as both a person and a friend to do the exact same thing in their time of need as well. A friendship truly is a precious gift to have a fond appreciation for, to have somebody care about you enough to want to engage in time with you and for you to want to reciprocate those same exact feeling makes for a special connection that serves as life's many great gifts. With friends memories can be made, good times can be had, and simple wonderful conversations can be shared, and serves to adding to the rich quality of one's life.
 Friends are important, their needed, and provide an unspoken magic to everyday human interactions and continue the evolution of cherished human connections; through friendships were connected, viewed fondly in one's eyes, and are given the space to grow as people through the positive impact that a friendship can lend. To those who have friends appreciate what you have with them, know that it's not a right but rather a privilege to be granted one, and appreciate what the distinction of a mere friendship has meant to your life what it has done for your everyday existence; and how meaningful it can be in the lives of others. There's a reason why many of us have one and in many cases more than one because whether it's through a shared laugh, bond, an appreciation of common interest or involved life moments we know deep down inside that living without them would make for a much less pleasurable life journey and a conclusively lessened human life experience.

The Improbable Warriors start

In sports there comes a time when a team has one of those special seasons, a magical season that has everyone's attention, and emphasizes how great a team truly is and that is precisely what is going on right now with the golden State warriors incredible year thus far.  With a start only rivaled by the Chicago Bulls the Warriors are an astounding 36-3 with no signs of remotely slowing down anytime soon. With tremendous guardplay and a championship already notched under their belt combined with a terrific team chemistry and depth it is no wonder they are title contenders yet again and the odds on favorite to win it all this season. Powered by the league MVP Steph Curry who has continued his stellar play from his MVP season last year, the Warriors are not only the most exciting team to watch in the NBA but it can be argued that they are the most exciting team to watch in all of sports right now. Considering the way they play why wouldn't they be? afterall, their ability to move the basketball, hit three point shots, defend, accompanied by their run and gun style is easy basketball viewing to visually take in and enjoy; and their tremendous start only adds to their magnetic appeal.
 Their talented roster which is spearheaded by a dynamic duo and extremely effective one-two punch of Stephen curry and Clay Thomson is hard enough to contend with, but add an all star talent the likes of Draymond Green and Andre Iguodala , and great role players to round out a well oiled and well balanced machine such as Shaun Livingston and Leandro Barbosa and you have an utter handful to deal with. Many expected great things for the team this year but this astonishing start was a definite surprise to many, especially coming from a team fresh off of a tittle winning season the year prior. Now due to their excellent start there are talks of a potential record tying 72-10 season which would tie the impressive Bulls mark accomplished in their 1995-96 season; and even discussions of whether they could surpassed that magical bulls season. They may not have accoplished what the bulls have as they are still very far away from their wonderful accomplishments and memorable legacy, but what they have succeeded in much like the bulls, is making regular season basketball meaningful again. Their exciting brand of basketball their high scoring nature and their Superstar MVP has helped make this season's warriors team both important and Special.
       The jury is out on how long they can maintain this stretch if fantastic play and not wear down as the season moves along, but with a young team, a tremendous backcourt and a superstar talent is the clear MVP things are definately looking good for a potential long sustained run of dominance; that is if any other team in the Western conference team has anything to say about it.
They may not be the bulls and may not have the resumes and legacies of other iconic NBA teams and players yet but what they do have is time. Time to showcase their team greatness on a night in night out basis and greatly add to what they've already accomplished.
The warriors are young, motivated and play as if they have something to prove and that's how good teams become great, great teams become champions, and champions become dynasties. The jury may still be out on whether or not this team in particular can become one but given their talent, Stephen Curry's ability to get even better as an NBA talent and the potential for their nucleus to stay intact this team in my mind will be around for a very long time to comes, threatening for more NBA titles, and cementing their legacies as one of the greatest teams that the NBA has ever had.
