through thick and thin

in a world that is constantly changing and at a time in my life in which i feel very alone and isolated,  this song speaks to the kind of person i wish were more immediately and consistently present in my life. 

someone who is there through the ups and downs, through thick and thin, in good times and bad and me for him. someone who understands me and i understand and we accept and embrace each other for who we are at our best and our worst. 

is that really too much to ask of the universe?
