That was beautiful. Truly a glowing, accurate depiction of Friendship.
Personally I have always seen Friendship as a single glistening snowflake, in a vast winter blizzard. High in the mountains amidst the pine trees the snowflake falls, gently coming to rest on the branch of a majestic evergreen. The pine tree gently shifts, and is just enough to shake the snow from the branch, the leaves now devoid of snow become the verdant shade of green that shines all year round. And the single snowflake, now one among many, begins to slowly make its way down the mountainside, fluffy white crystals each unique and precious in their own way. They begin to go faster, gathering more and more to their common cause, masses of glittering snow cascading like a rushing river down the slopes of the once silent mountain. The wave of beauty gains mass at increasing speeds, roaring down upon the well populated yet sleepy hamlet that clings to the side of the peaceful mountain. Houses move in the wake of the happiness that sweeps over them, windows crack and split when faced with the undeniable power of the wondrous beings of ice, lights go dark as the power lines are cut, leaving nothing but the moon to light the snow. The glistening force sweeps the cars filled with happy orphans to new heights, followed sudden lows, on the chilly mountaintop roads. And all that is left is the single, beautiful, happy, wondrous, peaceful, perfect snowflake of friendship that clings to the mitten of a child that no longer moves under the clear, open heavens full of stars on the quiet mountain.
