Life is full of ups and downs
Smiles and laughter, tears and frowns.
But with all life's changes its good to know
That I have a friend, to whom I can go.
And no matter how hurt that I have been
You always remind me that I have a friend.
My life has been blessed because of you,
Your loving ways, and all that you do.


Your presence is a present to the world
You're unique and one of a kind
Your life can be what you want it to be
Take the days just one at a time

Count your blessings, not your troubles
You'll make it through whatever comes along
Within you are so many answers
Understand, have courage, be strong

Don't put limits on yourself
So many dreams are waiting to be realized
Decisions are too important to leave to chance
Reach for your peak, your goal, your prize

Nothing wastes more energy than worrying
The longer one carries a problem, the heavier it gets
Don't take things too seriously
Live a life of serenity, not a life of regrets

Remember that a little love goes a long way
Remember that a lot... goes forever
Remember that friendship is a wise investment
Life's treasures are people... together

Realize that it's never too late
Do ordinary things in an extraordinary way
Have health and hope and happiness
Take time to wish upon a star
And don't ever forget...
Even for a day...
How very special you are.

Sweet Inspiration


If I could catch a rainbow.. I would do it just for you
and share with you its beauty on the day you're feeling blue

If I could build a mountain you could call your very own
a place to find sincerity.. a place to be alone

If I could take your troubles and toss them into the sea
but all these things i'm feeling are just impossible for me

I can not build a mountain or catch a rainbow fair
but let me be what i know best.. a friend that's always there
When there's so much beauty in the world, sometimes, I feel like I'm seeing it all at once, and it's too much, my heart fills up
like a balloon that's about to burst. And then I remember relax, and stop trying to hold on to it, and then it flows through me like
rain and I can't feel anything but gratitude for every single moment in my stupid little life.



"The most I can do for my friend is simply to be his friend. I have no wealth to bestow on him. If he knows that I am happy in loving him, he will want no other reward. Is not friendship divine in this? "
Sometimes the best way to be a friend is by just being yourself!
