Recipe For Friendship<\/strong><\/p>\n

`Fold two hands together with an expressed dash of sorrow,<\/p>\n

Marinate it overnight<\/p>\n

And work on it tomorrow.<\/p>\n

Chop one grudge in tiny pieces,<\/p>\n

Add several cups of love,<\/p>\n

Dredge with a large sized smile.<\/p>\n

Mix with the ingredients above.<\/p>\n

Dissolve the hate within you<\/p>\n

By doing a good deed,<\/p>\n

Cut in and help your friend<\/p>\n

If he should be in need,<\/p>\n

Stir in laughter, love, and kindness<\/p>\n

From the heart it has to come.<\/p>\n

Toss with genuine forgiveness<\/p>\n

And give your neighbor some.<\/p>\n

The amount of people served<\/p>\n

Will depend on you.<\/p>\n

It can serve the whole wide world<\/p>\n

If you really want it to.<\/p>\n
