Friendship at the Café

the idea behind the fertile void café

What’s a friend?

Love freely, without judgement, with no thought of reciprocal exchange, listening to, laughing with, standing alongside, sharing peaks - and troughs, giving advice with no expectation of it ever being heeded.

This is a friend.

Answering the call, sharing all that can be and giving it gladly, asking good questions with no questions asked, keeping a place when it’s crowded, leaving the space when it’s needed.

This is a friend.

Smiling on meeting or just reading a text, hugging from the heart, finding the words that are exactly what’s needed.

This is a friend.

This is where we write.
