someone else's life. Never underestimate that.
FRIENDS..........
Mark was walking home from school one day when he noticed
the boy ahead of him had tripped and dropped all of the
books he was carrying, along with two sweaters, a baseball
bat, a glove and a small tape recorder.
Mark knelt down and helped the boy pick up the scattered
articles. Since they were going the same way, he helped to
carry part of the burden. As they walked, Mark discovered
the boy's name was Bill, that he loved video games, baseball
and history, and that he was having lots of trouble with his
other subjects and that he had just broken up with his girlfriend.
They arrived at Bill's home first and Mark was invited in for a
a few laughs and some shared small talk, then Mark went home. They
continued to see each other around school, had lunch together once
or twice, then both graduated from junior high school. They ended
up in the same high school where they had brief contacts over the
years. Finally the long-awaited senior year came and three weeks
before graduation, Bill asked Mark if they could talk. Bill
reminded him of the day years ago when they had first met.
"Did you ever wonder why I was carrying so many things home that
day?" asked Bill. "You see, I cleaned out my locker because I didn't
want to leave a mess for anyone else. I had stored away some of my
mother's sleeping pills and I was going home to commit suicide. But,
after we spent some time together talking and laughing, I realized
that if I had killed myself, I would have missed that time and so
many others that might follow. So you see, Mark, when you picked up
those books that day, you did a lot more, you saved my life.
Every little hello, every little smile, every helping hand
saves a hurting heart. Pass it on. With this e-mail also comes
the token that says that YOU are special. There's a miracle called
Friendship that dwells in the heart. You don't know how it happens
or when it gets started, but you know the special lift it always
brings and you realize that Friendship is God's most precious gift!
Friends are a very rare jewel, indeed. They make you smile
and encourage you to succeed. They lend an ear, they share a
word of praise, and they always want to open their heart to us.
Show your friends how much you care.....send this to
everyone you consider a FRIEND, even the person that
sent it to you. If it comes back to you, then you'll
know you have a Friend for life. Show your friends how
much you appreciate them and what they mean to you......
You may be doing far more than you realize for them.....
