A friend posted this to my page this morning, a most beautiful passage written by one of the members of the King’s Singers – and brilliantly heartfelt.

Interestingly enough, I had just been thinking, “What makes a friend?”

I’m always pondering over these such things – wondering what it might take to bring us all just a bit nearer. We are ‘born together, yet dying of loneliness’ – and, here I sit this morning, trying desperately to determine cause.

So, what makes a friend? An interesting question, indeed.

I think true friendship shares with us a world, we never knew existed – but, always felt was there. And, helps to cast all doubt aside, in those moments when faith may be wavering.

But, in the end – perhaps, it’s friendship that becomes the light to our ‘brand new day’?

Much love, and many blessings, my dears….and thank you, for the gift of your love.

You Are The New Day.

I will love you more than me
and more than yesterday
If you can but prove to me
you are the new day

Send the sun in time for dawn
Let the birds all hail the morning
Love of life will urge me say
you are the new day

When I lay me down at night
knowing we must pay
Thoughts occur that this night might
stay yesterday

Thoughts that we as humans small
could slow worlds and end it all
lie around me where they fall
before the new day

One more day when time is running out
for everyone
Like a breath I knew would come I reach for
the new day

Hope is my philosophy
Just needs days in which to be
Love of life means hope for me
borne on a new day

You are the new day
