thank you for being a friend.....

reflection
i so appreciate the dear, caring friends who have stayed near me thru the many challenges i have faced of late... 

a friend is one to whom one may pour out the contents of
    one's heart, 
chaff and grain together, knowing that the gentlest of hands will take and sift it, keep what is worth keeping and with a breath of kindness blow the rest away.
                                                                           -arabian proverb

love one another with brotherly affection. 
out do one another in showing honor. ~romans 12:10


only your real friends
will tell you when your
face is dirty.  ~sicilian proverb


in everyone's life, at some time,
our inner fire goes out.
it is then burst into flame by an encounter
with another human being.
we should all be thankful for those people
who rekindle the inner spirit.
~albert schweitzer
messenger of the gods...

and as you wish that others would do to you, 
do so to them. ~luke 6:31


a good friend is cheaper 
than therapy.  
~author unknown

if a friend is in trouble, 
don't annoy him by asking if there is anything you can do.  
think up something appropriate and do it.  
~edgar watson howe 


it takes a long time to grow
an old friend.  ~john leonard

i value the friend who for me finds time on his calendar, but i cherish the friend who for me does not consult is calendar.  ~robert brault



a friend loves at all times...
~ proverbs 17:17
     

have a little faith in me: john hiatt

When the road gets dark
And you can no longer see
Just let my love throw a spark
And have a little faith in me
And when the tears you cry
Are all you can believe
Just give these loving arms a try
And have a little faith in me

Have a little faith in me
Have a little faith in me

And when your secret heart
Cannot speak so easily
Come here darling, from a whisper start
And have a little faith in me
And when your back’s against the wall
Just turn around and you, you will see
I will catch you, I will catch your fall
Just have a little faith in me

Have a little faith in me
Have a little faith in me

‘Cause I’ve been loving you, for such a long, long time
Expecting nothing in return
Just for you to have a little faith in me
You see time, time is our friend
‘Cause for us, there is no end
And all you gotta do, is have a little faith in me
I will hold you up, I will hold you up
And your love, gives me strength enough to
Have a little faith in me
Hey hey
All you gotta do for me girl
Is have a little faith in me
