Take one cup of love, two cups of loyalty,
three cups of forgiveness, four quarts of
faith and one barrel of laughter.
Take love and loyalty and mix them
thoroughly with faith; blend with tenderness, kindness and understanding.
Add friendship and hope.
Sprinkle abundantly with laughter.
Bake it with sunshine.
Wrap it regularly with lots of hugs.
Serve generous helpings daily.

Each one of us has lived through some
devastation, some loneliness,
some weather superstorm or spiritual
superstorm, when we look at each other
we must say, I understand.
I understand how you feel because
I have been there myself.
We must support each other and empathize
with each other because each of us is more
alike than we are unalike.
