Friends, here, there and everywhere

  In all of the countries I've been, I have made at least one friend. In the military; where we have all nationalities and colors and religions I am happy to say that all the soldiers are my friends.  It doesn't matter if they are Marine, Air Force, Navy, Coast Guard or Reservist. They are my friends....my extended family, if you will. 
   It is easier to make friends, than to endure hate or mis-trust.  It is easier to cultivate friendship, than to keep others at arms distance.  We need more people to be proactive. I remember seeing something to the effect of " R.A.K" on a bumper sticker and asked the owner of the car what it meant.  He said " it stands for Random Acts of Kindness ".  I say " R.A.K. all the way".  If you believe that it's easier to be friendly than mean, please pass this on.
