Throwback Thursday: AAC & Friendship
friend /frend/
noun: a person whom one knows and with whom one has a bond of mutual affection, typically exclusive of sexual or family relations. (Oxford Dictionaries)
Hubert Humphrey said it was life’s most important gift. Elie Wiesel told us that it marks our lives more deeply than love. Thomas Aquinas felt that nothing on earth was more prized.
Friendship matters. To all of us.
