In "Suzanne's Diary For Nicholas" by James Patterson, Suzanne states:
So, Nicky
I was only thirty five when I had the heart attack in Boston. The following day I had a coronary bypass at Mass. General. It put me out of action, out of circulation for almost two months, and it was during my recuperation that I had time to think, really think, maybe for the first time in my life.
I thoroughly, painfully examined my life in Boston, just how hectic it had become, with rounds, research, overtime, overwork, and double shifts. I thought about how I'd been feeling just before this awful thing happened. I also dealt with my own denial. My grandmother had died of heart failure. My family had a history of heart disease. And still I hadn't been as careful as I should have been.
It was while I was recuperation that a doctor friend told me the story of the five balls. You should never forget this one, Nicky. This is terribly important.
Imagine life is a game in which you are juggling five balls. The balls are called work, family, health, friends, and integrity. And you're keeping all of them in the air. But one day you finally come to understand that work is a rubber ball. If you drop it, it will bounce back. The other four balls- family, health, friends, integrity- are made of glass. If you drop one of these, it will be irrevocably scuffed, nicked, perhaps even shattered. And once you truely understand the lesson of the five balls, you will have the beginnings of balance in your life.
Nicky, I finally understood.'

In the book, "THE CRYSTAL CAVE" by Mary Stewart,
Merlin states, ' "Mithras, Apollo, Arthur, Christ- call him what you will", I said. "What does it matter what men call the light? It is the same light, and men must live by it or die. I only know that God is the source of all the light which has lit the world, and that his purpose runs through the world and past each one of us like a great river, and we cannot check or turn it, but can only drink from it while living, and commit our bodies to it when we die."

GIRLS IN MY CIRCLE
When I was little,
I used to believe in the concept of one best friend,
And then I started to become a woman.
And then I found out that if you allow your heart to open up,
God would show you the best in many friends.
One friend is needed when you're going through things with your man.
Another friend is needed when you're going through things with your mom.
Another will sit beside you in the bleachers as you delight in your children and their activities.
Another when you want to shop, share, heal, hurt, joke, or just be.
One friend will say, ' Let's cry together, '
Another , ' Let's fight together, '
Another , ' Let's walk away together. '
One friend will meet your spiritual need,
Another your shoe fetish,
Another your love for movies,
Another will be with you in your season of confusion,
Another will be your clarifier,
Another the wind beneath your wings.
But whatever their assignment in your life,
On whatever the occasion,
On whatever the day,
Or wherever you need them to meet you with their gym shoes on and hair pulled back,
Or to hold you back from making a complete fool of yourself ..
Those are your best friends.
It may all be wrapped up in one woman,
But for many, it's wrapped up in several..
One from 7th grade,
One from high school,
Several from the college years,
a couple from old jobs,
On some days your mother,
On some days your neighbor,
On others, your sisters,
And on some days, your daughters.
So whether they've been your friend for 20 minutes or 20 years,
AND ONLY IF YOU'D LIKE TO,
Pass this on to the women that God has placed in your life
To make a difference.

The special people in this world are the most precious
and the most appreciated people of all. No matter what
happens, they always understand. They go a million miles
out of their way. They hold your hand.
They bring you smiles, when a smile is exactly
what you need. They listen, and they hear what
is said in the spaces between the words. They care,
and they let you know you're in their prayers.
Special people always know the perfect thing to do.
They can make your whole day just by saying something
that no one else could have said. Sometimes you feel like
they share with you a secret language that others can't tune into.
Special people can guide you, inspire you, comfort you,
and light up your life with laughter. Special people understand your moods and nurture your needs, and they lovingly know just what you're after.
When your feelings come from deep inside and the
need to be spoken to someone; you don't have to
hide from, you share them... with special people.
When good news comes, special people are the first
ones you turn to, and when feelings overflow and
tears need to fall, special people help you through it all.
Special people bring sunlight into your life.
They warm your world with their presence,
whether they are far away or close by your side.
Special people are gifts that bring happiness,
and treasures that money can't buy.

Even though I clutch my blanket and growl when the alarm rings. Thank you, Lord, that I can hear. There are many who are deaf.
Even though I keep my eyes closed against the morning light as long as possible. Thank you, Lord , that I can see. Many are blind.
Even though I huddle in my bed and put off rising. Thank you, Lord, that I have the strength to rise. There are many who are bedridden.
Even though the first hour of my day is hectic, when socks are lost, toast is burned, tempers are short.
Thank you, Lord, for my family. There are many who are lonely.
Even though our breakfast table never looks like the picture in magazines and the menu is at times unbalanced.
Thank you, Lord, for the food we have. There are many who are hungry.
Even though the routine of my job is sometimes monotonous. Thank you, Lord, for the opportunity to work. There are many who have no job.
Even though I grumble and bemoan my fate from day to day and wish my circumstances were not so modest.
Thank you, Lord, for life.

'ALL CHILDREN NEED A ROOF TO KEEP OUT THE RAIN, WALLS TO SHELTER THEM FROM THE WIND, A HEARTH TO DRIVE AWAY THE COLD. THOSE ARE THE BASICS, BUT THEY ARE NOT ENOUGH. CHILDREN ALSO NEED LOVE, ORDER, LAUGHTER, AND AT LEAST ONE ADULT WHO WOULD DO JUST ABOUT ANYTHING FOR THEM. AND BECAUSE CHILDREN ARE NOT BORN KNOWING THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN RIGHT AND WRONG, THEY NEED A PLACE WHERE THEY CAN BEGIN TO DEVELOP A MORAL SENSE. THEY NEED PEOPLE TO GUIDE THEM TOWARD WHAT IS RIGHT AND GOOD. HOME IS THAT PLACE. FAMILIES ARE THOSE PEOPLE......IN ONE SENSE, THE MORAL JOURNEY THAT BEGINS WITH LEAVING HOME IS THE SEARCH FOR OPPORTUNITIES TO OFFER OTHERS THE SAME NURTURING LOVE WE RECEIVED IN OUR OWN CHILDHOOD. THE BEST MEMORIES OF HOME BECOME IDEALS WE SEEK TO RE-CREATE IN OUR LIVES AND IN THE LIVES OF THE CHILDREN WE BRING INTO THE WORLD. WE START OUR OWN FAMILIES, OFFER OUR OWN LESSONS, NURTURE OUR OWN CHILDREN IN THE STRENGTH AND KNOWLEDGE WE GAINED BESIDE THE FIRST WARM HEARTH OF HOME.' - William J. Bennett
