Build a Box of Friendship
by Chuck Pool



Into a box of friendship
To insure that it is strong,
First a layer of respect
On the bottom does belong.

Then to the sides attach,
In the corners where they meet,
Several anchors full of trust,
Devoid of all deceit.

The height of friendship can be measured
By the sides of four,
So make them all a larger cut
And the box will hold much more.

Now fill it up with courtesy,
Honor and esteem,
Understanding, sympathy
And passion for a dream.

Add to that your honesty,
Emotions, joy and love,
And since they're so important
Place them up above.

But leave the box wide open
So all can see inside
To learn what makes a friendship work
From the box you built with pride.

A Friend should be Radical;

They should love you when you’re unlovable,
Hug you when you’re unhuggable,
And bear you when you’re unbearable.

A Friend should be Fanatical;

They should cheer when the whole world boos,
Dance when you get good news,
And cry when you cry too.

But most of all, a Friend should be Mathematical;

They should multiply the joy, divide the sorrow,
Subtract the past, and add to tomorrow,
Calculate the need deep in your heart,
And always be bigger than the sum of all their parts.

Friendship is a quiet walk in the park with the one you trust.
Love is when you feel like you are the only two around.

Friendship is when they gaze into your eyes and you know they care.
Love is when they gaze into your eyes and it warms your heart.

Friendship is being close even when you are far apart.
Love is when you can still feel their hand on your heart when they are not near.

Friendship is hoping that they experience the very best.
Love is when you bring them the very best.

Friendship occupies your mind.
Love occupies your soul.

Friendship is knowing that you will always try to be there when in need.
Love is when you will give up everything to be at their side.

Friendship is a warm smile in the winter.
Love is a warming touch that sends a pulse through your heart.

Love is a beautiful smile to which nothing compares:
A tender laugh, which opens your heart,
A single touch that melts away your fears,
A smell that reminds you of the tenderness of heaven,
A voice that reminds you of the innocence of youth.

Friendship can survive without love.
Love cannot live without friendship.

Friends are like...

Comfort on difficult days,

Smiles when sadness intrudes,

Rainbows to follow the clouds,

Laughter to kiss your lips,

Sunsets to warm your heart

Gentle hugs when spirits sag,

Friendships to brighten your being,

Beauty for your eyes to see,

Confidence for when you doubt,

Faith so that you can believe,

Courage to know yourself,

Patience to accept the truth,

And love to complete your life.

OK, there are so many true and sweet things said about friends.

Mine won't be very polite. Sorry for that.

Friends are like underwear, always near you.
Good friends are like condoms, always protecting you.
Best friends are like viagra, lift you up when you are down.

funny but true

Have a wonderful day, my dear Mingle2 friends

So very True!
