My friend Warren

Warren is one of my best friends on this planet, we have known each other for 15 years or more. When he meets new PEOPLE, he embraces them and tries to make them laugh, he has a wicked sense of humour. He is quick witted, funny and great to be around. He brightens up my day whenever he is near, I call him the sun in my shine, he calls me his life. We do stupid things, he loves music and jingles and knows every one, we bounce off each other, I video him, we sing together, we laugh together. Here are 2 PEOPLE that light up each others life. I was there when he lost his mum - he wanted me there, and he was there when my life was SHIT, I needed him there.. His life is simple, uncomplicated and full of love without judgement. The PEOPLE that dont show him love back are dismissed, the PEOPLE that do are embraced and friends for life, and richer for it.

Some PEOPLE think he is dumb, some PEOPLE think he is a retard, some PEOPLE are scared of him, some PEOPLE cant understand a word he says and some wouldnt give him the time of day.

Thats because he has Down Syndrome. To me he is a precious friend and a man who will turn 40 this new years eve and I feel priveledged to be a part of that celebration.

Some PEOPLE have not lived until they have had a friend like Warren. Some people are just plain STUPID.
