I came across this wonderful, anonymous quote, and thought I'd share it. Perhaps you have heard it; I had not.

"My friend knows the song in my heart, and sings it to me when my memory fails."

Hi Diva,


Thank you for sharing this great quote.


After I read it, my mind replaced a word in it just like some words are replaced in the 12 step programs.


"My friend knows the song in my heart, and sings it to me when my behavior fails."


I hope you don't mind my posting this. I have been trying to find a way to express whats in my heart and I still have some communication ways/word errors to learn about and fix in myself. My mind is singing different ones to me as I write this, as I so need it for myself in my recovery. Like change the word  behavior to word, actions, etc. Awsome tool to use.


Thanks again and BLESSINGS

I love that quote!!!


It reminded me of some lyrics from a Harry Chapin song, something about "old friends are better than new friends, cuz they know where you are, and they know where you've been"


Thanks for sharing
