The fencewill never be the same. When you say things in anger, they leave a scar just like this one. You can put a knife in a man and draw it out. It won't matter how many times you say I'm sorry, the wound is still there. A verbal wound is as bad as a physical one.
Friends are a very rare jewel, indeed.
They make you smile and encourage you to succeed. They lend an ear, they share a word of praise, and they always want to open their hearts to us. When I go to bed at night, I want to always believe that I have never left nail holes in any of those precious, vulnerable hearts. Moytura has several other sites with a 'Christian flavour'.
