Friendship is a priceless gift
that cannot be bought or sold.
But its value is far greater
than a mountain made of gold.
For gold is cold and lifeless,
it can neither see nor hear,
And in the time of trouble,
it is powerless to cheer.
It has no ears to listen,
no heart to understand,
It cannot bring you comfort
or reach out a helping hand.
So when you ask God for a gift,
be thankful if He sends
Not diamonds, pearls, or riches
but the love of real, true friends.
And he who gives of himself will find true joy of heart and
peace of mind.
