Don't walk in front of me, I may not follow.
Don't walk behind me, I may not lead.
Just walk beside me and be my friend.
A real friend is someone who walks in
when the rest of the world walks out.
Forgiveness is the glue that repairs broken
relationships
Nature has given to man one tongue,
but two ears, that we may hear from others
twice as much as we speak
"true friends are like diamonds,
precious and rare."
"A friend is someone who knows the song in your
heart, and can sing it back to you when you have
forgotten the words."
"A friend is someone who believes in you when you
have ceased to believe in yourself."
"It takes a long time to grow an old friend."
Character is what you are. Reputation is what people think you are.
You cannot shake hands with a clenched fist.
Drive carefully. It's not only cars that can be recalled by their maker.
It's not the pace of life that concerns me,
it's the sudden stop at the end.
A closed mouth gathers no feet...
It's not hard to meet expenses....They are everywhere..
is unattainable for humans.
I believe we are all perfectly human..
Jealousy often, but not always, breeds itself on miscommunications..
I don't agree with the saying that "Respect must be earned"
I believe respect always should be given until a person
earns disrespect..
Moral values have value only to moral persons..
It is always good to remember that even a friend was a stranger
at some point and time..
A true friendship does not arise
in the blink of an eye,
nor is it destroyed by
a thoughtless slip of the tongue..
Life has a way every now and then
of teaching us that we don't know
nearly as much as we thought we did
A secret shared with someone is no longer
a secret..
Taking the time to do a "reality check" is easy
the difficult part is determining whose "reality"
should be checked..
If you say, "I quit", you lose..
If you say, "I'll try", you might win;
but you have the power to choose..
The only exercise some people get is jumping to
conclusions, sidestepping responsibility, dodging
issues, passing the buck and pressing their luck!
To be without dreams is to be without hope;
To be without hope is to be without purpose...
"All excellent things are as difficult as they are rare"
"Talk to a man about himself and he will listen for
hours"..
"Trying to squash a rumor is like trying to unring a bell"
"An optimist is someone who tells you to cheer up when
things are going his way"
Just Being Friends
"Friendship happens in that special moment
when someone reaches out to another,
trusts, comforts, believes in another,
and makes a special difference
that no one else can make".
"The man who rows the boat doesn't generally have time
to rock it"
"Life is hard by the yard, but by the inch is a cinch"
fast that you forget not only where you have been,
but also where you are going
Life is not a race, but a journey to be
savored each step of the way
Yesterday is but a memory,
tomorrow is only a dream,
but today well lived
makes every yesterday a memory of happiness,
and every tomorrow a dream of hope!
