Friendship is the theme for this week’s Friday Favorites.
We begin with a sweet illustration from a vintage children’s book and end with some wonderful quotations on the subject. π
Don’t these little ladies look as if they’re the best of friends? They look so relaxed and comfortable together. I’ll bet a secret or two is being shared at this tea party! π
Here are just a few of the many beautiful quotes on friendship. Which one touches your heart?
“Can miles truly separate us from friends?
If we want to be with someone we love, aren’t we already there?” ~ Richard Bach“A true friend is someone who thinks that you are a good egg even though he knows that you are slightly cracked.” ~ Bernard Meltzer
“A friend is someone who reaches for your hand and touches your heart.” ~ Anonymous
“Friendship? Yes Please.” ~ Charles Dickens
“I get by with a little help from my friends.”
~ John LennonβIf all my friends were to jump off a bridge, I would not follow, I would be at the bottom to catch them when they fall.” ~ Anonymous
See you Monday with the new questions!
My quote is my own, and is something like
“A real friend lets you be yourself, and holds you back when you are ready to jump off the roof.” I tell my friend Deb all the time that she grounds me. She fills that certain need when I must vent and she knows that I don’t need her to find a solution, just support.
We all have friends that fulfill a certain need, but if you find one that fills them all, well that’s a BEST friend and we all need one.
So, if you can’t be a best friend, then try to be a GOOD friend.
Amen.
Oh! I just love this post!!! I’m soooooo happy we’re friends! Hugs, Paulette :o)
Me too, Paulette! π
Beautifully said, Carol.
Amen, indeed!
This post was so touching! I live very far from my actual family, so my friends become my family. I am truly thankful for the wonderful people who are willing to call me “friend.”
I’m sorry I’m so hit or miss lately on the comments – work is really busy and school is starting back up, so I’m not able to get to the blog every day… Hopefully things will settle down soon/we’ll hire someone, but till then, 150%!
Oh I love everything about friendship π It’s the most beautiful thing in the world, along with love, of course.
I loved the vintage picture of the ladies and also the quotes! <3
What a sweet vintage picture π Thank you for the beautiful quotes.
