True friendship is worth more than can be measured, a quality forever to be treasured.

In your true essence - not the false self, not the ego part of you, but in the true essence of who you are - you are infinite and you have something very profound to accomplish while you're here. Otherwise you wouldn't be here.

Wayne Dyer
