God’s Boxes I have in my hands two boxes, Which God gave me to hold.
He said, ‘Put all your sorrows in the black box, And all your joys  in the gold.’
 

        
I heeded His words,and in the two boxes, Both my joys and sorrows I stored,   But though the gold became heavier each day, The black was as light as before.With curiosity, I opened the black, I wanted to find out why, And I saw, in the   base of the box, a hole,  Which my sorrows had   fallen out by.I showed the hole to God, and mused, ‘I wonder where my sorrows could be!’   He smiled a gentle smile and said, ‘My child, they’re all here with me..’I asked God, why He gave me the boxes, Why the gold and the black with the   hole? ‘My child, the gold is for you to count your blessings, The black is for   you to let go.’We should consider all of our friends a blessing. Send this to a friend today  just to let them know you are thinking of them and  that they are a joy in your life.A ball is a circle, no beginning, no end. It keeps us together like our Circle  of Friends. But the treasure inside for you to see, Is the treasure of friendship  you’ve granted to me. Today I pass the friendship ball to you.
Pass ! it on to someone who is a friend to you…

Friendship is Continuous
