Being A Friend

Azaleas in full bloom.

Treat your friends as friends should be treated: be sincere, considerate, courteous, truthful, loyal, sympathetic, helpful, listen, and above all, keep your word.

If you are a friend, you will stay when others walk out, and you will lend a hand when others are too busy.  In addition, you will always lend a shoulder on which to cry.

It takes time to make and hold friends; however, the reward is so worth it! 

In life, as in friendship:

 

• Do more than get; give.
• Do more than regret; learn.
• Do more than look; see.
• Do more than sympathize; help.
• Do more than live; love.

May your garden of friends flourish, always ...
