Sharing the Stars
Living so far away from each other,
separated by much land and sea.
But at night when we look into the dark sky,
the same stars twinkle down, at you and me.
They shine down on us to remind us,
that we are not really that far apart.
As no matter how far away from one another,
we both share their beauty inside our heart.
The sharing of the stars brings us close,
and forms a smile between your heart and mine.
A close friendship growing from a distance,
as thoughts and feelings intertwine.
So no matter where either of us may live,
the stars will always follow us home.
Forever joining our hearts with a wide smile,
and shining on the wonderful friendship that has grown.
Cherished Friends
God must have known there would be times
We'd need a word of cheer
Someone to praise a triumph
Or brush away a tear.
He must have known we'd need to share
The joy of "little things"
In order to appreciate
The happiness life brings.
I think he knew our troubled hearts
Would sometimes throb with pain
At trials and misfortunes
Or some goals we can't attain.
He knew we'd need the comfort
Of an understanding heart
To give us strength and courage
To make a fresh, new start.
He knew we'd need companionship
Unselfish...lasting...true,
And so God answered the heart's great need
With CHERISHED FRIENDS....like you.
Something to think about
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.
Anger is only one letter short of danger.
If someone betrays you once, it's his fault;
if he betrays you twice, it's your fault.
Great minds discuss ideas;
Average minds discuss events;
Small minds discuss people.
God gives every bird it's food,
But he does not throw it into it's nest.
He who loses money, loses much;
He who loses a friend, loses more;
He who loses faith, loses all.
Beautiful young people are accidents of nature,
But beautiful old people are works of art.
Learn from the mistakes of others.
You can't live long enough to make them all yourself.
The tongue weighs practically nothing,
But so few people can hold it.
Friends, you and me....
you brought another friend...
and then there were 3...
we started our group...
Our circle of friends...
and like that circle...
there is no beginning or end..
