THEM to lie to you?
Be there when they need you ...
or you may wind up alone.

encouragement now and then.

Include them. You may need to be
included sometime.
Just be there when they need you.
Know when they need a hug, and
couldn't you use one too?

is the ONLY condition.
Make them feel special, because
aren't we ALL special?
Never forget them. Who wants to
feel forgotten?
O ffer to help and know when
"No thanks" is just politeness.
Praise them honestly and openly.
Quietly disagree. Noisy "NO's"
make enemies.
R eally listen. A friendly ear is
a soothing balm.
Say you're sorry. Don't let them
assume it.

important.
Use good judgment.
Verbalize your feelings!
Wish them luck ... hopefully good!

By following these

you SHOULD live a LONG and friend-filled life.
