Guest guest Posted January 20, 2011 Report Share Posted January 20, 2011 Despite my searching the web like a mad spider, and exhaustingthe site www.brainyquotes.com--I just cannot find the exact wordsuttered by the French writer, Antoine de Saint-Exupery about friends.So, I shall paraphrase it as best I can:(We each have families, relatives, but then there is the "family ofchoice"-- friends whom we choose, as they choose us, but the bond is eternal.)I think that describes our group, even though we did not choose to have our "Multiple Surprises," we do choose to be loyal to,to be supportive of, and to rely on one another here under theleadership of our founder, Sharon.Therefore, this applies to Akiba and Robbin, to Jackie, and to every single one of us and to all to whom we feel close.Love to you all,n Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
