Great friend theme Carol had going on. I chose a Political quote theme. Not sure why, except for some very good political posts on theBubbler.com since last election season.

Too true, I think.

I remember a passage from The Cross and the Switchblade:

If you have a couple of friends in life you're lucky. If you have one good friend, you're more than lucky.

Good quote.

Lately it seems people can't understand the value of the truth or the value of just being honest. Self absorption seems to be more prominent than caring about others and their feelings. It's sad. I've seen to much of this and it starts to make you jaded against trusting others. Trust is so fragile that it should be guarded and appreciated and valued for what it is and not treated lightly.
