True friendship comes when silence between two people is comfortable
The soul lives forever and friendship does the very same. Forget me
not, nor these words, remember when to you I came.
If enemies can become friends virtually overnight, they can become enemies
again with equivalent alacrity.
To build a friendship, you need years. To break that same friendship,
it takes just seconds.
Choose your friends with care. They are the ones that will talk about
you the most.
Remember, the greatest gift is not found in a store nor under a tree,
but in the hearts of true friends.
Cindy Lew
True friendship is seen through the heart not through the eyes.
The Golden Chains of Friendship
Friendship is a golden chain,
The links are friends so dear,
And like a rare and precious jewel
It's treasured more each year...
It's clasped together firmly
With a love that's deep and true,
And it's rich with happy memories
And fond recollections, too...
Time can't destroy it's beauty
For, as long as memory lives,
Years can't erase the pleasure
That the joy of friendship gives...
For friendship is a priceless gift
That can't be bought or sold,
But to have an understanding friend
Is worth far more than gold...
And the golden chain of friendship
Is a strong and blessed tie
Binding kindred hearts together
As the years passing by.
Helen Steiner Rice
The glory of friendship is not the outstretched hand, nor the kindly
smile, nor the joy of companionship; it is the spiritual inspiration that
comes to one when he discovers that someone believes in him and is willing
to trust him with his friendship.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Friendship
Each of us has a hidden place
Somewhere deep within ourselves;
A place where we go to get away,
To think things through,
To be alone, to be ourselves.
This unique place, where we confront our deepest feelings,
Becomes a storehouse of all our hopes,
All our needs, all our dreams,
And even our unspoken fears.
It encompasses the essence of who we are and what we want to be.
But now and then, whether by chance or design,
Someone discovers a way into that place we thought was ours alone.
And we allow that person to see, to feel and to share
All the reason, all the uncertainty
And all the emotion we've stored up there.
That person adds new perspective to our hidden realm,
Then quietly settles down in his own corner of our special place,
Where a bit of himself will stay forever.
And we call that person a friend.
Carol Elaine Faivre-Scott
A smile is to cheer you and me
The cost is nothing - it's given free
It comforts the weary - gladdens the sad
Consoles those in trouble - good or bad
To rich and poor - beggar or thief
It's free to all of any belief
A natural gesture of young and old
Cheers on the faint - disarms the bold
Unlike most blessings for which we pray
It's one thing we keep when we give it away.
A true friend stabs you in the front.
