    THANKS TO YOU LYRICS

    Thank you for teaching me how to love

    Showing me what the world means

    What I've been dreamin' of

    And now I know, there is nothing that I could not do

    Thanks to You

    For teaching me how to feel

    Showing me my emotions

    Letting me know what's real

    From what is not

    What I've got is more that I'd ever hoped for

    And a lot of what I hope for is

    Thanks to you

    No mountain, no valleyNo time, no space

    No heartache, no heartbreak

    No fall from grace

    Can't stop me from believing

    That my love will pull me through

    Thanks to You

    Oh... There's no mountain, no valley

    No time, no space

    No heartache, no heartbreak

    No fall from grace

    Can't stop me from believing

    That my love will see me through

    Thanks to You

    Thanks to You

    For teaching me how to live

    Putting things in perspective

    Showing me how to give

    And how to take

    No mistake

    We were put here together

    And if I breakdownForgive me but it's true

    That I am aching with the love I feel inside

    Thanks to You

    Thanks to you

    FriendshipA short story by Sally Berneathy

    Paula and I met in the first grade. Since her last name was Brent and mine was Berneathy,

    she sat behind me. We were both shy and had nothing to say to each other until the day she asked

    to borrow my ruler.

    We lived in a small town in southern Oklahoma where money was scarce, and my six-inch

    red plastic ruler was a valued possession. Reluctantly, I loaned it to Paula--and she kept it for too

    long, or so it seemed to me. I turned around to take it back, but Paula wasn't through with it. I

    grabbed, she held on...the ruler broke.I cried. She cried. I blamed her, and she blamed me.

    And, in the manner of six-year olds, from that day forward, we were inseparable, the best

    of friends.

    As the years passed, we spent many nights at each other's houses, whispering the night

    away about our plans for the future. We were going to move to a big city and be room-mates in a

    gorgeous apartment. I would be a writer, and she would be an artist. She would illustrate my

    books, and we would both be rich and famous. When we were older, probably around twenty-five,

    we would marry and live next door to each other and be auntto each other's children.

    When we were ten years old, we saw an episode of "Lassie" in which Timmy and his

    friend pricked their fingers and became blood brothers. Paula came home with me the next

    evening. We dug a hole in the hard earth out behind my family's weathered old barn, took a thorn

    from the locust tree and pricked our thumbs, joining our blood. We buried the thorn, each adding

    an item we prized, as the friends on "Lassie" had done. Paula contributed her dime-store set of

    water colors, and I added a paper back book. Our most valuable possessions--but not as valuable

    as our friendship.

    She told me that she'd called my mother twice and been given wrong phone numbers both

    times. She'd almost given up, but decided to try one more time...and caught my mother in a rare

    moment of lucidity.Now Paula's back in Oklahoma, and I live in Missouri. We see each other every summer

    and call each other regularly.

    During the years we'd lost touch, she had another, unexpected, child...a girl, named after

    me.

    A girl who calls me "Aunt."
