 5 Friend Club Thanksgiving Day Special

If the only prayer you said in your whole life was, "thank you," that would suffice.  ~Meister Eckhart

We can only be said to be alive in those moments when our hearts are conscious of our treasures.  ~Thornton Wilder

This journal is dedicated to my 5 closest friends on Thanksgiving Day just to let them all know how truly grateful I am to have you all in my life...

Sydney Rebecca Ellis~The essence of true friendship is to make allowance for another's little lapses.  ~David Storey
If you're alone, I'll be your shadow.  If you want to cry, I'll be your shoulder.  If you want a hug, I'll be your pillow.  If you need to be happy, I'll be your smile.  But anytime you need a friend, I'll just be me.  ~Author Unknown

In everyone's life, at some time, our inner fire goes out.  It is then burst into flame by an encounter with another human being.  We should all be thankful for those people who rekindle the inner spirit.  ~Albert Schweitzer
You mean the world to me, even though you already know that. In 11 years we have been through so much. You have truly helped me to become the person I am today. Very simply but with my entire being I say "Thank you" and "I love you!"

Carrie Elizabeth Abes~
The best rule of friendship is to keep your heart a little softer than your head.  ~Author Unknown

We've been through a lot in a very short amount of time. You've taught me a lot about life and how to really live it. It doesn't matter what I say or do, I know that when I'm with you I can always be me and for that I am truly thankful.

Stephanie Elizabeth Robinson~
A loyal friend laughs at your jokes when they're not so good, and sympathizes with your problems when they're not so bad.  ~Arnold H. Glasgow
I don't need a friend who changes when I change and who nods when I nod; my shadow does that much better.  ~Plutarch
You and Carrie come as a package deal, kinda like me and Syd. I can honestly say I wouldn't take one without the other. We've grown a lot closer, even in just the last few weeks. Thank you for always listening and caring, it means so much to me.

Dominic Francis Borello~
Friendship is unnecessary, like philosophy, like art.... It has no survival value; rather it is one of those things that give value to survival.  ~C.S. Lewis
Friendship isn't a big thing - it's a million little things.  ~Author Unknown
It has been a whirlwind, but what is life without bumps in the road. From day one I knew we would be friends for a long time. So no matter what happens between us there is always security in knowing we will be friends. Thank you for always letting me know "everything's gonna be ok."

William David Sullivan~
It is one of the blessings of old friends that you can afford to be stupid with them.  ~Ralph Waldo Emerson
The most beautiful discovery true friends make is that they can grow separately without growing apart.  ~Elisabeth Foley
You somehow always manage to make me laugh, whether it's your journal, talking to you, or just thinking of something you've done; you always bring a smile to my face. I'll always be in your cheering section no matter what you do. Thanks for always making me smile.

Gratitude is the memory of the heart.  ~Jean Baptiste Massieu
And my heart is grateful for each of you!

I wish you all a blessed Thanksgiving and hope you take the time to realize the things you are truly grateful for...good life, good family, good friends, and good food....Good God let's eat!! lol. So I leave you with the words of one of our great presidents...

As we express our gratitude, we must never forget that the highest appreciation is not to utter words, but to live by them.  ~John Fitzgerald Kennedy
