A BOY'S BEST FRIEND

We all need one. One best friend who we know will always be there for us no matter how we behave, or how we feel. There is nothing greater.

A little boy in NY turned in an essay to his teacher about the meaning of friendship.

WHAT MY DOG MEANS TO ME

My dog means somebody nice and quiet to be with.

He does not say DO, like my mother.

He does not say DON'T, like my father.

He does not say STOP, like my big brother.

My dog Spot and I just sit quietly together,

and I like him and he likes me,

(and that's why he's my best friend.)

"One loyal friend is worth ten thousand relatives." -- Euripides (408 B.C.)
