Friendship...

Many people will walk in and out of your life;
But only true friends will leave footprints in your heart.

To handle yourself, use your head;
To handle others, use your heart.




The dictionary says: Friend (frend) noun.
1. A person whom one knows, likes and trusts.
2. A person with whom one is allied in a struggle or cause; comrade.
3. One who supports, sympathizes with, or patronizes a group.
4. An acquaintance.

The dictionary makes one small omission though.
It doesn't speak of the years that a friendship
endures, the laughter that fills the air when
friends are together, the support, understanding
and comfort a friend can offer or the anguish you
cannot escape from when a friend is dying.

The dictionary, I'm afraid, cannot begin to define
the word: Friend. So then what is this magic called
Friendship? Is there a magic wand that silently
transforms you and those special people on a journey
into, what sometimes can be a lifelong relationship?

Is it mutual admiration, common interests, the need
to be a friend? Or is it just an enduring tie that
bonds you together, allows you to almost think as one
and gives you one of life’s greatest joys.




Anger is only one letter short of danger.

If someone betrays you once, it is his fault;
If he betrays you twice, it is your fault.




Friendships are precious jewels. Treat them as such.
Enjoy them! Celebrate them! And never take them for granted.




Great minds discuss ideas;
Average minds discuss events;
Small minds discuss people.




He, who loses money, loses much;
He, who loses a friend, loses much more;
He, who loses faith, loses all.




Beautiful young people are accidents of nature.
Learn from the mistakes of others.
You can't live long enough to make them all yourself.




Friends, you and me
You brought another friend
And then there were 3
We started our group
Our circle of friends.




There is no beginning or end. Yesterday is history.
Tomorrow is a mystery. Today is a gift.




The possibility of stepping into a higher plane is
quite real for everyone. It requires no force or
effort or sacrifice. It involves little more than
changing our ideas about what is normal.




Friends are angels who lift us to our feet when our
wings have trouble remembering how to fly.
