Don'T Give Up

When life gets hard and you want to hide and things start to get out of hand when time ticks slower and slower it's time to rise up and stand When there are more questions than answers and things don't go your way when troubles seem like they'll forever last remember tomorrow is another day When the light doesn't shine your way and your at wit's end when all seems lost never to be found just trust in a friend Tripping through fields of daisies when you want to dance plucked by that thorny rose while smelling her fragrance When all hope is lost and you're down on your luck when the sharks circle around and your boat is about to sink that's when true friends can be found Don't give up hope, desire, or trust in man This friend will be there to take hold your hand

Its comforting to know some friends will always be there.. Some will betray us and sting us like a rose, but some our like daises, lovely, bubbly and pure.

This was so cool... but it started out soooo sad... That Grandpa Troll almost started crying... And you DON'T want a Troll to cry! Dragon is still sleeping. But he'll love this one when he wakes up... Grandpa Troll is getting us up an hour earlier to read more great Jack, John, and Tim stuff... But he'll wake up soon... He'll be sooo pleased that he's now your best-est friend ever! Hey! I wouldn't EVEN try argueing with a Dragon! Know what I mean?... Just take the compliment!

A beautiful write on lessons in life, not just friendship. All of us were gifted with inner strength. When times are hard, it will come to fore. A friend can only do so much, but it's our fortitude that carries the day, our grit and character will read the soul of a real friend who's always been there, who for us prays. Great write, Tim!

a great SONG of friendship, Tim. It sure seems like a song to me, it's so lyrical. I love about the roses. You lean to smell their fragrance, and the damn things might pluck at you!!! (worst kinds of friends!!)
