My heart is always happy
When I truthfully can say
That by the grace of God
I made another friend today.


There is no better way
In which to use the time we spend
Than just to smile and say hello
And find another friend.


We cannot have too many
For the courage that we need
If only in the comfort of
A good and kindly deed.


If only in the counsel
And the words of sympathy
That leave no doubt or question
As to their sincerity.


And so it always is a day
That has a happy end
When I can tell myself
That I have made another friend.
For you Nazimova ,Faith ,Jasonp, Silent Type ,JustAnotherGoat and everyone here. Thanks for making me smile during this trying time. Much love to you all ...Paulie
