Lending a Helping Hand

Can you imagine peeling 40 pounds of potatoes? That's what I helped to do this morning. My friend Jane had to make a huge amount of mashed potatoes for a pitch in dinner this evening. I peeled my 10 pounds, helped slice others up. I am not a good person in the kitchen so I was glad to be able to help.

A chore or trouble is less so if you have friends in your corner. An ordinary day can become special if shared with a friend. A special event can become extraordinary when shared with friends.

The expression, "Friends are the family we choose for ourself" is so true. A person has lots of friends in their life .... situational, work, church, school. The friends that stick around for the long haul - they are the forever friends. There is something comforting know a person is going to love you no matter what.

Call a friend today and let them know what they mean to you.
