A Few of FR's Finest....Every Day

Free Republic made its debut in September, 1996, and the forum was added in early 1997.   Over 100,000 people have registered for posting privileges on Free Republic, and the forum is read daily by tens of thousands of concerned citizens and patriots from all around the country and the world.

A Few of FR's Finest....Every Day was introduced on June 24, 2002. It's only a small room in JimRob's house where we can get to know one another a little better; salute and support our military and our leaders; pray for those in need; and congratulate those deserving. We strive to keep our threads entertaining, fun, and pleasing to look at, and often have guest writers contribute an essay, or a profile of another FReeper.

On Mondays please visit us to see photos of A FEW OF FR'S VETERANS AND ACTIVE MILITARY

If you have a suggestion, or an idea, or if there's a FReeper you would like to see featured, please drop one of us a note in FR mail.

We're having fun and hope you are!

"BEST FRIENDS are the siblings God forgot to give us."

A change of pace today; a filler of sorts.... an email received some time ago from a friend: various quotes about love and friendship. Please feel free to add your own treasured gems.

Thank you, martin_fierro, for making this special montage for me to use today. I can't think of a better way to illustrate "Best Friends" than with FReepers' own photos, and the graphic you chose is perfect!

Of Love and Friendship....

• LOVE starts with a smile, grows with a kiss, and ends with a tear.
  
  
• THE HARDEST thing to do is watch the one you love, love somebody else.
  
  
• DON'T FROWN. You never know who's falling in love with your smile.
  
  
• DON'T CRY over anyone who won't cry over you.
  
  
• What do you do when the only person who can make you STOP crying is the person who MADE you cry?
  
  
• Nobody is PERFECT until you fall in love with them.
  
  
• Some people make the world SPECIAL just by being in it.
  
  
• A BEST FRIEND is like a four leaf clover, hard to find and lucky to have.
  
  
• Most people walk in and out of your life, but only FRIENDS leave footprints in your heart.
  
  
• GOOD FRIENDS are hard to find, harder to leave, and impossible to forget.
  
  
• Good friends are like STARS. You don't always see them, but you know they are ALWAYS THERE.
  
  
• When it HURTS to look back, and you're SCARED to look ahead, you can look beside you and your BEST FRIEND will be there.
  
  
• TRUE FRIENDSHIP "NEVER" ends. Friends are FOREVER.

And Other Good Stuff....

• DON'T let the past hold you back; you'll miss the good stuff.
  
  
• LIFE is SHORT. If you don't look around once in a while you might miss it.
  
  
• REMEMBER, every minute spent angry is sixty seconds of happiness wasted.
  
  
• EVERYTHING is okay in the end. If it's not okay, then it's not the end.

Hope you're thinking about working on more of that stuff we need. :)

I'm fine, friend! I have to have a root canal, but no going to let that get me down. I'm in a peaceful mood. :)

Good morning, jw. Thank you for adding those words of friendship and other little gems. I look forward to your post every day, to see your reaction to each thread. You never disappoint either!

I love Maxine ..... she has a way of with words.

Hey there yourself, across-the-ocean FRiend!

Just BEAUTIFUL, this one and #81!

[Billie]

Anyone who can be 'fine' when contemplating a trip to the dentist for a root canal HAS to be in a peaceful mood! (However, I start to start to stress just thinking about a checkup and cleaning) : )

I'm feeling better, but I still am having this pain in the side of my head. I'm taking antibiotics for it, but if it persists I'm going back to the doctor.
