What is something you would do for a friend that you wouldn’t for other people? Isn’t a stranger just a friend we haven’t met yet? I’ve done a lot for friends…. even for people I don’t know that are broken down on a road someplace.
But yet, I guess for a friend, “there is no greater love than to lay down ones life for friend.” Since the only life I have is waht is given to me by my Creator I guess to Honor them both to introduce them would be the greatest thing I could do for a friend.
Walk in Peace, Friend
Dittos on Numu Puetuyai. It’s the only way to go!
great quotes of friends!
I think the quote of Epicurus says pretty much what I think – that the best thing you can do for a friend is to let him/her know you’re always there. And I suppose you can’t even do this for everyone else…
Winnie always great quotes. I love that lil bear!
I would care for them more than those who are not friends. Hard to explain, easier to do.
I would give them a hug. I only hug friends and people I like.
Oh, I get by with a little help from my friends
with a little help from my friends…..Joe Cocker
without surrender I’d do most anything for a friend……
have a baby
That is the first thing that popped in my mind,LOL thank God,they did it on their own.
My favorite friend quote is “A friend is someone that knows you well and likes you anyway.” That is the type of best friend that I have. We can tell each other when we aren’t acting the best and when we are. For almost thirty years we have been friends and still are.
I like the Edgar Watson Howe quote. People try asking me what they can do for me, and I can never think of anything. It’s so much easier when they just DO something nice!
after visiting an old neighbor at the nursing home I remembered I gave Mrs. Palmer my favorite Martha Stewart blanket and my husband said,”honey,that is your favorite and you gave it to her.”I said,” Mrs. Palmer said when I asked if she liked the blanket ?she said that she didn’t know how she’s lived 93yrs without it”. I said,”I know,it’s a good blanket.”
my favorite is the first one
I’d help her hide a body… And I wouldn’t even ask her why we were doing it.
Hold them when they cry
I’ll do anything for her…………that’s how I feel.
Have a blessed day!
