FRIENDS 36
Remembering is the heart's own way Of holding loved ones close And keeping us in constant touch With those who mean the most. Remembering is the heart's own way Of sending loving thoughts today! A friend is someone we turn to When our spirits need a lift, A friend is someone we treasure For true friendship is a gift. A friend is someone we laugh with Over little personal things, A friend is someone we're serious with In facing whatever life brings. A friend is someone who fills our lives With beauty and joy and grace And makes the world that we live in A better and happier place! ~unknown~~
A good friend is someone to do nothing much with and find "nothing much" so much fun. A good friend is talking and talking about everything under the sun. A good friend is someone who really is glad when you've worked for and won a success. Someone you don't have to be on your guard with or be what you aren't to impress. A good friend is so many wonderful someones all mixed in a marvelous blend Of memory making, of giving and taking, a "now and forever" Good Friend. ~Anonymous
I love you not only for what you are, but for what I am when I am with you. I love you not only for what you have made of yourself, but for what you are making of me. I love you for the part of me that you bring out. I love you for putting your hand into my heaped up heart and passing over all the foolish and frivolous and weak things that you can't help dimly seeing there, and for drawing out into the light all the beautiful radiant belongings that no one else had looked quite far enough to find. I love you for ignoring the possibilities of the fool and weakling in me, and for laying firm hold on the possibilities of the good in me. I love you for closing your ears to the discords in me, and for adding to the music in me by worshipful listening. I love you because you are helping me to make of the timber of my life not a tavern, but a temple, and of the words of my every day not a reproach, but a song. I love you because you have done more than any creed could have done to make me happy. you have done it without a touch, without a word, without a sign. You have done it first by being yourself. After all, perhpas this is what being a friend means.
THE FRIENDS WE MEET ONLINE The true friends who we meet online Are a very special kind They pierce your shields and see within The corners of your mind. They're always there when you're in need With their power to discern. They feel your pain..... They offer hope and genuine concern. We bare our souls, expose our hearts And show our inner fears And then before you know it The keyboard's stained with tears. And if we could see them through that screen Then no one could deny That to be a TRUE online friend They too must cry. ~Unknown~
