Friend
(page 5)
A friend is someone who gives you total freedom to be yourself.
A friend is what the heart needs all the time.
My cell phone is my best friend. It's my lifeline to the outside world.
A single rose can be my garden... a single friend, my world.
Read something of interest every day — something of interest to you, not to your teacher or your best friend or your minister/rabbi/priest. Comics count. So does poetry. So do editorials in your school newspaper. Or a biography of a rock star. Or an instructional manual. Or the Bible.
Technology can be our best friend, and technology can also be the biggest party pooper of our lives. It interrupts our own story, interrupts our ability to have a thought or a daydream, to imagine something wonderful, because we're too busy bridging the walk from the cafeteria back to the office on the cell phone.
We invest less in our friendships and expect more of friends than any other relationship. We spend days working out where to book for a romantic dinner, weeks wondering how to celebrate a partner or parent's birthday, and seconds forgetting a friend's important anniversary.
My dad is my best friend, my father, and my boss. When I do something that is exciting and he likes it, it feels three times as good as you can imagine.
Outside of a dog, a book is a man's best friend. Inside of a dog it's too dark to read.
I pray to be a good servant to God, a father, a husband, a son, a friend, a brother, an uncle, a good neighbor, a good leader to those who look up to me, a good follower to those who are serving God and doing the right thing.
Always give a word or sign of salute when meeting or passing a friend, or even a stranger, if in a lonely place.
When a man's best friend is his dog, that dog has a problem.
We are all travelers in the wilderness of this world, and the best we can find in our travels is an honest friend.
My best friend is the man who in wishing me well wishes it for my sake.
No person is your friend who demands your silence, or denies your right to grow.
The biggest misconception about the homeless is that they got themselves in the mess — let them get themselves out. Many people think they are simply lazy. I urge those to make a friend at a local mission and find out how wrong these assumptions are.
My favorite type of pet has always been a dog. They're loyal, kind, and offer endless affection. My friend Eric says, 'The more people I meet, the more I like my dog'. Funny thought.
Each heartfelt prayer, each Church meeting attended, each worthy friend, each righteous decision, each act of service perfomed all precede that goal of eternal life.
