1. This reminds me of the quote- if you try to please everyone- you end up pleasing no one. It's difficult to be friends with everyone...and truely be there friends-

2. (I agree with the above said) aparently well said paulaj

3. Friendships form during fun times and are tested by hard times? -- now that is WELL SAID gravy. Very true. Friendship can be made over a few drinks...but its the hard time- the times of tears that tests friendship. A friend has seen you cry- a true friend crys with you.

4. I think that Paulaj has a good point...great things happen when people work together...but Gravy- great observation...we still have oceans...

5. When you love someone....the language that is best understood is that without words. Its when you say nothing at all...that we sometimes communicate best. Its wonderful to know someone well enough to be able to sit with them for hours.....not having to say a word- yet "saying" everything.
