Friends are made by serving them or serving with them.  Four people I served along side at a nursing home became some of my closest friends.  They were there when my mother had to go into a nursing home when her surgery went badly. When she died the day before my finals, my friends were there to support me, helping me get through finals, pack and get home in time for her funeral.

Life is fuller and more manageable when you spend a little time each week thinking about others instead of yourself.  A life without service is no life at all.  by Jessica Jones
