True Friends ( Borrow from Guess who?????)

Many will be there when you are on top of the world..

Lots of people want to ride with you in the limo, but what you want is someone who will take the bus with you when the limo breaks down. ~Oprah Winfrey

I enjoy making new friends and meeting new people but true friends are hard to find, it takes effort to build a true friendship.

You can speak openly to a true friend on any subject without weighing your thoughts or measuring your words, you just spill them right out. Because a friend will always accept you as you are.

It is true that people change when their surrounding environment changes. But I don't need my friends to change when I change or nods when I nod. I just need them to remember the song in my heart and sing it to me when my memory fails.

When you go off track, true friends never fail to correct you, slap you awake and bring you back to the right path where you belong.

When you are at your lowest, they will always be there to support you.

Even if you were to call them in the middle of the night;

Willingly they will lend you a helping hand if you are in need

or just a listening ear when you are down

or even a crying shoulder.

They would gather the broken pieces and return them back to you in all the right order.

Old friends are always the best. They know all about you but still likes you for who you are. Never will they judge you or take pleasure in criticizing you.

It takes a long time to grow an old friend. It cannot be developed overnight.

So it is important that you make acquaintances as you progress in life. Put in your heart and be true to someone whom you think is worth it. Do not take things for granted. Appreciate every little thing that you have now to avoid the rush when it is too late.
Love all, trust afew,dowrong to none. -William Shakespeare


Just for Laugh

In an alcohol factory the regular taster died and the director started looking for a new one to hire. A drunkard with ragged, dirty look came to apply for the position. The director of the factory wondered how to send him away. They tested him. They gave him a glass with a drink. He tried it and said, "It’s red wine, a muscat, three years old, grown on a north slope, matured in steel containers." "That’s correct", said the boss. Another glass. "It’s red wine , cabernet, eight years old, a southwestern slope, oak barrels." "Correct." The director was astonished. He winked at his secretary to suggest something. She brought in a glass of urine. The alcoholic tried it. "It’s a blonde, 26 years old, pregnant in the third month. And if you don’t give me the job, I’ll tell who the father is!" COMPLETE & FINISHED.... People say there is no difference between COMPLETE & FINISHED.... But there is. When you marry the right one, you are COMPLETE.... And when you marry the wrong one, you are FINISHED..... And when the right one catches you with the wrong one, you are...COMPLETELY FINISHED What are the similarities of BAR & BRA 1. Both words have the same letters 2.. Both are drinking zones 3. Both have restricted timing for opening & closing 4. More importantly, both makes men crazy when open.
