People will surprise you. People you thought you could count on in the darkest days are not there for you. But others would not even dream of asking for help turn up and help you. These people usually get on with their lives very quietly and we forget they are there as friends for us too. Their beauty comes shining through on those dark days when we need a friend most.

So for today as yourself: Have you put together your support team? If not, why not? We all need at least one person we can turn to on bad days.
