                THE ABC'S OF FRIENDSHIP

           A lways be honest, would you want THEM to lie to you?
           B e there when they need you, or you may wind up alone.
           C heer them on; we all need encouragement now and then.
           D on't look for their faults, even if you have none.
           E ncourage their dreams; what would we be without them?
           F orgive them; you just MAY do something wrong sometime.
           G et together often;misery loves company, so does glee.
           H ave faith in them; the human animal is remarkable.
            I nclude them; you may need to be included sometime.
           J ust be there when they need you.
           K now when they need a hug..... and couldn't you use one?
           L ove them unconditionally; that is the ONLY condition.
           M ake them feel special, because aren't we ALL special?
           N ever forget them; who wants to feel forgotten?
           O ffer to help, and know when "No thanks" is just politeness.
           P raise them honestly and openly.
           Q uietly disagree; noisy NO's make enemies.
           R eally listen; a friendly ear is a soothing balm.
           S ay you're sorry; don't let them assume it.
           T alk frequently; communication is important.
           U se good judgment.
           V erbalize your feelings!
           W ish them luck, hopefully good!
           X amine your motives before you "help" out.
           Y our words count; use them wisely.
           Z ip your lips when told a secret.

By following these ABC's as often as you are able, you SHOULD live a
LONG and friend-filled life.

  P.S.  Remember...the person who sent it to YOU is also a friend...they
cared enough to forward you love.

  Live Life, Feel Love, Give Hugs, and Laff Lots !!
