Close Friends:
are the ones you contact when there is good news
are the ones you alert when there is a need for prayer
are the ones you confide to when there is a burden to be shared
are the ones you involve when special plans are being made
are the ones you thank God for whenever you count your richest blessings!

If I Could:
If I could catch a rainbow
I would do it just for you
and share with you its beauty
On the days you're feeling blue.
If I could build a mountain
You could call your very own
A place to find serenity
A place to be alone
If I could take your troubles
I would toss them In the sea!
But all these things I'm finding
are impossible for me.
I cannot build a mountain
Or catch a rainbow fair
But let me be what I know best-
A friend who's always there.
If you see someone without a smile, give him yours.
In this world of ordinary people, I'm glad there is you.
It doesn't matter where you are going in life --
It's the friends you have beside you along the way that makes your life work.

May your purse always hold a coin or two;
May the sun always shine on your windowpane;
May a rainbow be certain to follow each rain;
May the hand of a friend always be near you;
