Friendship makes prosperity brighter, while it lightens adversity by sharing its grieves and anxieties.
~ Marcus Tullius Cicero
1. Speak to People. There is nothing as nice as a cheerful word of greeting.
2. Smile at People. It takes 72 muscles to frown, but only 14 to smile!
3. Call People by Name. The sweetest music to anyone's ear is the sound of his or her own name.
4. Be Friendly and Helpful. If you would have friends, be friendly.
5. Be Cordial. Speak and act as if everything you do were a real pleasure.
6. Be Genuinely Interested in People. You can like everyone if you try.
7. Be Generous with Praise, Cautious with Criticism. Praise will win out when it comes to gaining friends.
8. Be Considerate of the Feelings of Others. It will be appreciated.
9. Be Thoughtful of the Opinions of Others. People love their opinions as they do their own children, calling them ugly won't get you anything but anger.
10. Be Alert to Give Service. What counts most in life is what we do for others!

Friendship is precious!
♣ not only in the shade,
♣ but in the sunshine of life;
♣ and thanks to a benevolent
♣ arrangement of things,
♣ the greater part of life is sunshine.
♣ Of all the blossoms in life's garden,
♣ friendship is the most fragrant
♣ A friend is a gift where
♣ worth cannot be measured
♣ except by the heart
♣ Be full of sympathy toward each other,
♣ loving one another with tender hearts
♣ and humble minds
♣ Friendship is sharing openly,
♣ laughing often,
♣ trusting always,
♣ caring deeply
♣ We can pour our heart out to a friend
♣ knowing that gentle hands will take and sift it,
♣ keep what is worth keeping,
♣ and with a breath of kindness,
♣ blow the rest away
