What's it all about, Alfie? Is it just for the moment we live? What's it all about when you sort it out, Alfie? Are we meant to take more than we give or are we meant to be kind? And if only fools are kind, Alfie, then I guess it's wise to be cruel. And if life belongs only to the strong, Alfie, what will you lend on an old golden rule? http://www.thesonglyrics.com/d_artists/lyrics/haldavid_lyric1.html "God is LOVE"....

FRIENDSHIP
"Oh
the comfort---the inexpressible comfort of feeling safe with a
person,
Having neither to weigh thoughts, nor measure words.
But pouring them all right out---just as they are---chaff and
grain together.
Certain that a faithful hand will take and sift them---keep what
is worth keeping---
and with the gentle breath of kindness, blow the rest away."
by Dinah M Mulock Craik

" Hey, ain't it good to know you've got a friend...people

your soul if you let them..o but now don't you let them.
You just call out My Name and I'll be wherever you are ..Summer,
Spring Winter or Fall, all you have to do is call and I'll be
there yes I will ...You've got a Friend."

ACROSS THE MILES www.buffnet.net/~ambrosia/icq/acrossmiles.htm
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Love anything and your heart will be
wrung and possibly broken. If you want to make sure of keeping it
intact you must give it to no one, not even an animal. Wrap it
carefully round with hobbies and little luxuries; avoid all
entanglements. Lock it up safe in the casket or coffin of your
selfishness. But in that casket--safe, dark, motionless,
airless--it will change. It will not be broken; it will become
unbreakable, impenetrable, irredeemable. To love is to be
vulnerable. C.S. Lewis
