Just a Quote...

This will be a short post, mainly just for a quote that I liked in the book I am reading. First though, a quick update for the weekend.

Saturday was a day of much laundry, and resulted in many clean clothes, sounds thrilling doesn't it?!?! Sunday I was invited over to a Mothers Day Feast at the Christensen's. I was thankful that while I was there I was able to help a little bit in making a few of the things. I received my instructions, and was on my way. It was fun then, though my feet and legs are quite tired today as I ended up playing kick ball then soccer for a total of something like 2 or 3 hours, it was loads of fun though.

I also got a chance to talk to my mom all the way in NY for a little bit, which was rather nice for Mothers Day. I have to say, my mom's the greatest, and I only wish I could have joined her for the holiday!!

So anyway... the quote, I'm not going to do a full bibliography though... It's from the book "Christy" by Cathrine Marshall. At this particular part Christy is talking about how friendship is in the mountains, and I liked it because I can relate, because it describes how I feel about my friendships...

"And so this kind of friendship was for life- yes, and for eternity too. One would never deceive or defraud a friend, nor allow him to be in need so long as you had one coin, one garment, or one meal to share with him. His sorrow was your sorrow; his joy, your cause for rejoicing."

1 John 4:7 "Beloved, let us love one another: for love is of God; and every one that loveth is born of God, and knoweth God."
