"The only way to have a friend is to be one."


Some times in our lives we make friends that last forever. I have been very blessed to have a lot of those good friends in my life. I still have my best friend Cyndi from first grade, we still talk at least once a month. Then there is my best friend from high school Johanna who I hardly see but through the miracle of the blog we keep in touch and I see her family grow! My dear and long time friend Michelle and I have been best friends since before the mission and have been brought together through music and soccer! Then there are my college girl friends. We all try to get together once a month for lunch or dinner. They are all getting married and having kids and life is moving on. I am sad to leave Utah and a lot of my friends, but as it works with my other distant friends we are still there for each other! Friendships are things I will cherish forever! "She who finds faithful friends, finds a treasure."

Sometimes in our lives we all have pain
We all have sorrow
But if we are wise
We know that there's always tomorrow

Lean on me, when you're not strong
And I'll be your friend
I'll help you carry on
For it won't be long
'Til I'm gonna need
Somebody to lean on

Please swallow your pride
If I have things you need to borrow
For no one can fill those of your needs
That you don't let show

Lean on me, when you're not strong
And I'll be your friend
I'll help you carry on
For it won't be long
'Til I'm gonna need
Somebody to lean on

If there is a load you have to bear
That you can't carry
I'm right up the road
I'll share your load
If you just call me

So just call on me brother, when you need a hand
We all need somebody to lean on
I just might have a problem that you'd understand
We all need somebody to lean on

Lean on me when you're not strong
And I'll be your friend
I'll help you carry on
For it won't be long
Till I'm gonna need
Somebody to lean on

Lean on me...
