Surely our lives wouldn't be nearly as happy
without the joy we feel
in giving and receiving friendship...

Friendship has its beginnings
within our own hearts---
or perhaps something very sad,
and we want to share it.

Soon we discover that sharing our happiness
means doubling our joy,
and sharing our sadness
means diminishing our sorrow.

We have given this part of ourselves to another,
and we receive a wonderful treasure in return--
the gift of friendship..

Your Friendship is a gift'
that I treasure with all my heart!!
