That’s My Friend

I may not be the most important person in your life. I just hope when you hear my name, you smile and say “That’s my friend!”

“A real friend is one who walks in when the rest of the world walks out.”– Walter Winchell

“If you live to be 100, I hope I live to be 100 minus 1 day, so I never have to live without you.”– Winnie the Pooh

“I like to listen. I have learned a great deal from listening carefully. Most people never listen.” – Ernest Hemingway

“Friendship is born at that moment when one person says to another, ‘What! You too? I thought I was the only one.”– C.S. Lewis

“True friendship comes when the silence between two people is comfortable.”– David Tyson

“Sweet is the memory of distant friends! Like the mellow rays of the departing sun, it falls tenderly, yet sadly, on the heart.”– Washington Irving

“There’s not a word yet for old friends who’ve just met.” – Jim Henson

Health does not always come from medicine

Health does not always come from medicine. Most of the time it comes from peace of mind, peace in the heart, peace in the soul. It comes from laughter and love.

A good laugh is a mighty good thing, a rather too scarce a good thing. — Herman Melville

A smile starts on the lips, a grin spreads to the eyes, a chuckle comes from the belly; but a good laugh bursts forth from the soul, overflows, and bubbles all around. — Carolyn Birmingham

God has a smile on His face. — Psalm 42:5

“If you're going to try, go all the way. Otherwise, don't even start. This could mean losing girlfriends, wives, relatives and maybe even your mind. It could mean not eating for three or four days. It could mean freezing on a park bench. It could mean jail. It could mean derision. It could mean mockery--isolation. Isolation is the gift. All the others are a test of your endurance, of how much you really want to do it. And, you'll do it, despite rejection and the worst odds. And it will be better than anything else you can imagine. If you're going to try, go all the way. There is no other feeling like that. You will be alone with the gods, and the nights will flame with fire. You will ride life straight to perfect laughter. It's the only good fight there is.”~ Charles Bukowski
