Thoughts: Be a friend….

From Edgar Cayce’s writings:
When we hear prophesies of earth changes, right away, we want to know if it will happen where we are.
What difference does it make if we are living right?
To be overanxious about ourselves because we are living in the wrong place is to be like the people who came to the old lady living on the frontier.
A man came to her and said he wanted to make a place for his family of boys and girls growing up, but he certainly hated to leave all his friends at home.
She said, “Well, you’ll find it just the same way out here. If you had friends at home, you’ll have friends here.”
The next man who came said that he was glad to get away from the place where he had lived for so many years; the people there were all selfish, stingy, and hard to get along with.
The old lady said, “Brother, you’ll find it the same way out here. If you couldn’t get along with the folks at home, you won’t be able to get along with the folks out here. If you didn’t have friends at home, you won’t find them here.”
