    “A friend is someone who gives you total freedom to be yourself.” ~ Jim Morrison

      “Friendship is like standing on wet cement. The longer you stay, the harder it’s to leave, and you can never go without leaving your footprints behind.” ~ Unknown

        “If you’re alone, I’ll be your shadow. If you want to cry, I’ll be your shoulder. If you want a hug, I’ll be your pillow. If you need to be happy, I’ll be your smile… But anytime you need a friend, I’ll just be me.” ~ Unknown

          When we first talked to each other
          I knew we would always be friends.
          Our friendship has kept on growing
          And I’ll be here for you to the end.

          You listen when I have a problem
          And help dry the tears from my face.
          You take away my sorrow
          And put happiness in its place.

          We can’t forget the fun we’ve had
          Laughing ’til our faces turn blue.
          Talking of things only we find funny
          People think we’re insane-If they only knew!

          I guess this is my way of saying thanks
          For catching me when I fall.
          Thanks once again for being such a good friend
          And being here with me through it all.

          ~ Rachel Ellis

            “I learned that our deepest need is to overcome our aloneness and our separateness. We seek to escape from separateness in various ways. We seek conformity, mistaking it for union. This is a soul-crushing way to exist. Or we seek union through orgiastic states – drugs, alcoholism, overwork – or through creative activities. But the ultimate escape from separateness is through interpersonal union.” ~ Joseph Jaworski, Synchronicity

              “The only way to have a friend is to be one.” ~ Ralph Waldo Emerson

                “The glory of friendship is not the outstretched hand, not the kindly smile, nor the joy of companionship; it is the spiritual inspiration that comes to one when you discover that someone else believes in you and is willing to trust you with a friendship.” ~ Ralph Waldo Emerson

                  "Sometimes the most ordinary things could be made extraordinary, simply by doing them with the right people." ~ Elizabeth Green

                    “A friend is one that knows you as you are, understands where you have been, accepts what you have become, and still, gently allows you to grow.” ~ William Shakespeare

                      “We are all travelers in the wilderness of this world, and the best we can find in our travels is an honest friend.” ~ Robert Louis Stevenson

                        “A journey is best measured in friends, rather than miles.” ~ Tim Cahill

                          When someone is nasty or treats you poorly, don't take it personally. It says nothing about you but a lot about them.

                            “A tree is known by its fruit; a man by his deeds. A good deed is never lost; he who sows courtesy reaps friendship, and he who plants kindness gathers love.” ~ Saint Basil

                              “Love is the only force capable of transforming an enemy into friend.” ~ Martin Luther King, Jr.

                                “How lucky I am to have something that makes saying goodbye so hard.” ~ Winnie the Pooh

                                  “True friends are families which you can select.” ~ Audrey Hepburn

                                    “If I associate with chickens, I will learn to scratch at the ground and squabble over crumbs.  If I associate with eagles, I will learn to soar to great heights.” ~ Andy Andrews, The Traveler’s Gift

                                      “Since there is nothing so well worth having as friends, never lose a chance to make them.” ~ Francesco Guicciardini

                                        “If a friend is in trouble, don’t annoy him by asking if there is anything you can do. Think up something appropriate and do it.” ~ Edgar Watson Howe

                                          “True friends are those who care without hesitation, remember without limitation, forgive without any explanation and love with even little communication.” ~ Anonymous
