And now for some random thoughts on friends ...
One of my all-time favorite quotes on friends<attributed to many people ... I have no clue who originated it>:
"A friend is someone who knows the song in your heart and can sing it back to you when you have forgotten the words."
Friends are like butt cheeks.
Crap might separate them,
But they always come back together.
"Everyone hears what you say. Friends listen to what you say. Best friends listen to what you don't say."
Each friend represents a world in us, a world possibly not born until they arrive. Anais Nin
