the quantity of your friends is not as important as the quality of your friends

once someone said to me, when i die, there will be ten thousand friends at my funeral:
the more friends one has, the greater they feel and they stand so boastful, strong and tall:
  the quantity of your friends is not as important as the quality of your friends:
  only with a few people, in a life time can you put your heart out and lend:
the more you age , the closer your friends become:
people do not brag and boast of the quantity of there friendships, as there prize and sum:
  old folks will very wisely say:
  that in a lifetime, four or five great friends closely with them through all the years would loyally stay:
with the internet, and world wide social media, people have such of a large number of connections, and thousands and thousands of friends:
but only a very few, four or five will you be able to give your heart and lend:
  the quantity of your friends is not as important as the quality of your friends:
  in your deepest, darkest times, you will only let few choice friends know and come to know your heart and lend:
