anxieties.
We feel rested and strengthened after
an interview with real friend, never
rritsted or worried.
The worthy and worthwhile friend
never chides us for not loving him enough
nor begs to be loved more; he makes
himself so deserving and so unobtrusive
that we needs must give him gratitude
and affection.
The wise friend never weighs us with
his friendship-never burdens us with
feelings that he cannot live without our
constant devotion. II Is the privilege of
love alone to do that.
Love may learn and cling forever.
And forever grow more dear.
