To my family and friends

Tell someone you love them today because tomorrow is not promised. To my family and friends, I LOVE YOU.

You can kiss your family and friends good-bye and put miles between you, but at the same time you carry them with you in your heart, your mind, your stomach, because you do not just live in a world but a world lives in you. 

Nothing purchased can come close to the renewed sense of gratitude for having family and friends. 

I've learned that all a person has in life is family and friends. If you lose those, you have nothing, so friends are to be treasured more than anything else in the world. 

Present your family and friends with their eulogies now - they won't be able to hear how much you love them and appreciate them from the grave. 

Keep one friend for 10 years is special.
