>*"A friend loves at all times,
    and a brother is born for adversity."*
[**- Proverbs 17:17 -**](https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Proverbs+17:17&version=ESV)

<H3>It's good to have friends.</H3>

I have them in "real life," and I have them, near and far, on Steemit.

<H3>Sometimes a few kind words have a large impact.</H3>

A few kind words from a far off friend blessed me today.

It's late. I'm weary.
Kind words arrive from afar,
Hope flows in again.
