Friends

I am in a dearth of friends outside my family at this time, but I have good memories of good friends and fun times spent with them.  I am very fortunate in my daughters, all of whom I feel are friends even when we don't share the same opinions on various matters.  I was happy to hear that one of my daughters has a good friend, a rare person who builds her up and supports her.  'Make friends with people who want the best for you.' is one of my favorite 'Rules for Life'.  It is easy to be taken down by people who resent you.  I am grateful for those friends who have made me better.
