This was sent to me by a friend of mine called Helena. It’s so nice. I had to share it with you! The best bit is at the end. In my opinion anyway! 🙂

A Keeper

When my mother died, in the warmth of her hospital room, I was struck with the pain of learning that sometimes there isn’t any more.

Sometimes, what we care about most gets all used up and goes away…never to return. So… While we have it… it’s best we love it… And care for it…. And fix it when it’s broken…. And heal it when it’s sick.


This is true… For marriage…. And old cars…. And children with bad report cards….. Dogs and cats with bad hips…. And aging parents…. And grandparents. We keep them because they are worth it, because we are worth it. Some things we keep. Like a best friend that moved away or a classmate we grew up with.

There are just some things that make life important, like people we know who are special…. And so, we keep them close!

Good friends are like stars…. You don’t always see them, but you know they are always there

People are made to be loved and things are made to be used.

There is so much confusion in this world because people are being used and things are being loved.
