Hey y’all it’s Sunday so you know what that means…it’s time to share quotes. They can be song lyrics, Bible verses, movie quotes or just quotes on anything you like. If this is your first time joining in, welcome, we are so excited to have you join us. To join in simply post a post on your site with one or more of your favorite quotes then grab the link to that post and add it to the Mister Linky below.
This week my quotes are on Best Friends. I have had people claim to be my “best friend” who I know are not but I have the ones in my life that I know I could not live without. The ones like that are truly the ones I call best friends. They are there for me when it seems like the world is against me. There to make me laugh when I am down, to comfort me when I am hurt, to grieve with me when I am grieving. They support me through hard times and even if we don’t talk everyday when I call them it’s like no time passed between us at all. Without them I truly would not be able to have made it through some of the hard things last year brought me.
Now for my quotes:
A loyal friend laughs at your jokes when they’re not so good, and sympathizes with your problems when they’re not so bad. ~Arnold H. Glasgow
How true this is, I will admit I am sometimes the stupidest joke teller there is out there, somethings I share are truly not laugh worthy but my friends bless their heart laugh just to make me feel better. I know they do LOL.
Yesterday brought the beginning, tomorrow brings the end, and somewhere in the middle we became the best of friends. ~Author Unknown
I am so thankful for the ones who are TRUE friends that came into my life, the ones who take the time to chat with me, love on me and just be there. I heart my friends
A friend knows the song in my heart and sings it to me when my memory fails. ~Donna Roberts
That song usually is something crazy you know, do you think a sane song would be sung in this nutty heart.
Soul-mates are people who bring out the best in you. They are not perfect but are always perfect for you. ~Author Unknown
My husband is one of my best friends he sees me laugh and cry, he definitely is perfect for me even though he isn’t perfect…though he would like you to think so LOL
If you’re alone, I’ll be your shadow. If you want to cry, I’ll be your shoulder. If you want a hug, I’ll be your pillow. If you need to be happy, I’ll be your smile. But anytime you need a friend, I’ll just be me. ~Author Unknown
I can honestly say this is exactly what my best friends would say to me. I have some awesome ones
Lots of people want to ride with you in the limo, but what you want is someone who will take the bus with you when the limo breaks down. ~Oprah Winfrey
I have had people use me to further themselves and dispose of me when I can’t do anything else for me so I totally get this quote. But I have had amazing friends that came in when I was at my lowest knowing there isn’t one thing I could do for them and they were right there with me.
Nothing but heaven itself is better than a friend who is really a friend. ~Plautus
Based on that heaven is going to be awesome yes?? As if I had any doubt it would be anyways!
There is one friend in the life of each of us who seems not a separate person, however dear and beloved, but an expansion, an interpretation, of one’s self, the very meaning of one’s soul. ~Edith Wharton
I do have that one friend, who it seems has been through a lot of the things I have been through, who truly is like another part of my soul. It’s so strange LOL but I absolutely adore her, and so very thankful to God for sending her to my life.
It is one of the blessings of old friends that you can afford to be stupid with them. ~Ralph Waldo Emerson
2 of the best friends I have had the longest are from elementary and high school and when I say I can be stupid with them I am not joking. You all think you see me stupid and goofy on here, well I promise you it’s worse with them LOL. One day I will have to share with you some of those things in another post.
I hope you are all lucky enough to have some best friend(s) that you can always count on and is essentially a part of your life that you would never want to live without. Sara, Jen, and Miranda are 3 of my best friends and I met them through blogging. Justin and Brandy are the best friends I have had the longest. Last but the forefront of my best friends is my husband and mom. Â They are the ones I celebrate life with every single day. Â My mom is the one who knows every single thing about me from since the minute I was born. Â Some people probably don’t share everything with their mom but I do, and I am so thankful that I do and always have been able to. Â My husband the one who has been there to hold me when others have hurt me and listen when I babble about anything, usually it’s really random stuff too. Â I love this man more than you know!
My life would not be complete without all of those people in my life. They are the ones I can go to with anything and they would not judge. They would cry with me, laugh with me, hold my secrets (even if our friendships ended God forbid). They truly are some of the most wonderful people out there and I am so very thankful to God for giving them to me. They truly are family to me and I hope they all know everyday just how much they mean to me.
Now it’s your turn, link up your quote posts in the Mister Linky below.

Wonderful quotes. You are right about friends. I try and explain the difference to Tara between real friends and acquaintances! Many of those I consider my best friends I don’t see often, but when we speak or see each other it feels like almost no time has passed!
Have a great day!
Isn’t that the best feeling ever 🙂
I love this one: Soul-mates are people who bring out the best in you. They are not perfect but are always perfect for you.
A lot of people don’t believe in Soul-mates because they have never had one.
Lovely topic and quotes today Toni!!

Very true, I often think those are exactly who don’t believe in soul mates
I love all the quotes, and especially your interpretation of them. There are so many different ‘types’ of friends, but the rare few that you can truly consider a ‘best’ friend. A friend once told me that your ‘true’ friends in your lifetime you can count on one hand – he was right! And those are the friends that truly matter. 🙂
Enjoy your Sunday, Toni, and Happy New Year! 🙂
