If you can't be everything to somebody, <br />reach out and just be a friend. If you <br />can't be somebody's whole life, be satisfied <br />with making their moment or their day. <br />Give them a smile and a gesture of friendship <br />to warm them. Do something nice for them, <br />something unexpected. People appreciate even <br />the smallest offer of kindness and acceptance - <br />a call, a note, or whatever you decide...that <br />will do. <br /> <br />If you can't solve somebody's problems, <br />just make them feel a little better about <br />something. Make them feel good about <br />themselves. It doesn't have to be a big <br />deal or cost a lot of money. It can just <br />be something thoughtful and small. Let <br />them know that someone is thinking of <br />them. Make their world a little better, even <br />for a short while. They just might need a <br />lift, you never know. Don't hold back. Life <br />is too short. Don't wait. They might need <br />you. If you can't make their day, then <br />brighten a moment for them. It could be <br />important.<br /><br />Aleksandra Lachut<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-friendship-creed/
