I have a friend like this. We have been friends for 28 years. We disagree about some things but have never had harsh words. She prays for me and I pray for her. She is one of the best things that has ever happened in my life. She laughs with me. She cries with me. We cry together. We laugh together. We never hang up the phone or leave each other without saying "I love you." She is a three time cancer survivor. Her name is Cheryl I thank God every day for sending Cheryl into my life. She is everything anyone could want in a friend.

Melissa- here are some of my favorites:



"A real friend is one who walks in when the rest of the world walks out."
-Walter Winchell

Two are better than one; because they have a good reward for their labour. For if they fall, the one will lift up his fellow: but woe to him that is alone when he falleth; for he hath not another to help him up."
- Bible: Ecclesiastes

"Friendship is unnecessary, like philosophy, like art... It has no survival value; rather is one of those things that give value to survival."
- C. S. Lewis

"If you judge people, you have no time to love them."
- Mother Teresa

"Misfortune shows those who are not really friends."
- Aristotle

"Best friends are like diamonds, precious and rare
False friends are like leaves, found everywhere."
- Anoymous

"A friend is someone you call when you need to make bail, a best friend is sitting beside you saying "that was fun!" :dance:

Ok, probably not appropriate, but all the other ones I thought of were taken.

 

[Melissa]

and a really good friend will help you get rid of the body... OK, just kidding! <kind of>

"A friend loves at all times." Proverbs 17:17

And I love the quotation from Ecclesiastes! Nick and I have the citation inscribed in our wedding bands: Eccl. 4:9-12.

Pony!
