The Garden House Creed

We are a group of loving,caring, devoted women,
who are all different, but the same, in our hearts.
We are mothers, daughters, sisters,wives and friends.
We have causes we support,that are dear to us and part of us.
Our special causes are as different and varied as we are and include
abuse in any form...towards children, women, and animals.
We are all diffrent, but the same, in our hearts.
We respect one another, we care for one another,
we pray for one another, we laugh and cry for one another.
We are there for one another
We can and will make a difference
on the internet and in the world
We are all different, but the same, in our hearts.
We are friends, we are who we are and
are proud of who we are and even prouder of our sisters.
We strive to make the world a better.
and more loving, safe place for all.

"A friend is, as it were, A Second Self."

DON'T WALK

Don't walk in front of me,
I may not follow-
Don't walk behind me,
I may not lead-
Just walk beside me
And be my friend.

-to all my friends-

FRIEND

There's a wonderful thing
that gold cannot buy,
A blessing
that's rare and true,
And that's the gift
of wonderful
FRIEND
Like the friend
I have in you.

<-----to my best friends----->

For all the talks you share with me
when we manage to solve so many of the world's problems
and even a few of our own...

For all the favors you do for me...
little ones most people wouldn't even think of
and big ones most people wouldn't even dream of...

For all the times I'm feeling down and you make me smile,
the times when things go wrong and you make them all right,
the times I can't get through on my own and you are there...

I thank you, my good, kind friend...for all you do.


Some Friends Are Forever

Sometimes in life, you find a special friend
Someone who changes your life by being a part of it
Someone who makes you laugh until you cant' stop
Someone who makes you believe
That there is really good in the world
Someone who convinces you that there is an unlocked door
Just waiting for you to open it

There is forever friendship
When you're down, and the world seem dark and empty
Your forever friend lifts you up in spirit
and makes that dark amd empty worls suddenly seem bright and full
Your forever friend get you through the hard time, the sad times, and the confuse times

If you turn and walk away, your forever friend follows
If you lose your way, your forever friend guide you & cheer you on
Your forever friend holds your hand and tell you everything is
And if you find such a friend,you feel happy and complete
Because you need not worry.
You have a forever friend for life, and forever had no end.
