Have You Met My Friend
Have you met my friend, Earnest? He doesn't come around, Often, except occasionally. But when he does show up, he usually brings his friend, Repent.
Earnest is a good friend. In times of trouble, that's when you will see him most, Often. Repent is always serious... but his company is good for the soul. These are good friends, you should get to know.

P.S. Read this to a friend, and ask: "can you name the three friends"? They will likely say, "Earnest, Repent", and then say: "who is the third." To which you will respond, "Often." Watch their reaction.
