Supportive Friends

I am truly thankful for supportive friends. They pick you up, stretch out a hand, embrace in a hug, and listen intently. They encourage and lift your spirits. They push you forward when you feel like giving up. Each and everyone of you have been placed strategically in my life at just the right time. God's special gifts. 

Two are better than one, because they have a good reward for their labor. 

For if they fall, one will lift up his companion. 

But woe to him who is alone when he falls, for he has no one to help him up. 

~Ecclesiastes 4:9-10

"In everyone's life, at some time, our inner fire goes out. 

It is then burst into flame by an encounter 

with another human being. We should all be thankful for those people who rekindle the inner spirit." ~Albert Schweitzer
