on true human feeling, a feeling of closeness
in which there is a sense of sharing and connectedness.
I would call this type of friendship genuine
because it is not affected by the increase or decrease
of the individual’s wealth, status, or power.
The factor that sustains that friendship is whether or not
the two people have mutual feelings of love and affection.”
