Send us a letter WEEKLY INSPIRATION "When I found the skull in the woods, the first thing I did was call the police. But then I got curious about it. I picked it up, and started wondering who this person was, and why he had deer horns." - Jack Handey Find a Friend, Be a Friend "Friendship," writes National Book Award nominee Beth Kephart in her book Into the Tangle of Friendship, "isn't all big gestures, ecstatic moments. It is also the little things, the humanity that happens between people when you find yourself way out of context and someone reaches out and pulls you in... And the fact is, if you commit to being a friend, you have to find the resources and time to be there for them. You can't apportion your care. Therefore, you can't have three thousand friends. You can't swim in a sea of acquaintances if you're serious about being there for people... In our friends we see the best and the worst of ourselves. We refine our character, where we'll go and won't go, through conversation with people we trust. It's a great blessing and a great burden." From Why Good Things Happen to Good People by Steven Post, PhD, and Jill Neimark, Broadway Books, New York, 2007.
