THE WORST OF TIMES CAN BE THE BEST OF TIMES

When our bank accounts are full

With our wallets bulging

Then we have more friends than

We can wave a stick at

But when poverty comes

See how many friends remain

Just how many will share your

Poverty , as when they shared

Your bank account , help you empty

Your wallet

Exsepted your genarosaty , the food

You bourt them , gave them a helping

Hand

See how many friends are there , through

The paine and tears

Not many I fancey

'Tis not the good times , that proves

Who's a freind and who ain't

'Tis those bad times , when freinds

Prove them selfs!

but that is life - and you soon learn about those who matter and who don't, despite the odd false impression - been there, done that Ken - but I will always believe that the true friends are there even when the chips are down, - sometimes its us who build the walls because we feel ashamed, not the other way rounds
