Default Does this ring a bell with you?

Found this today in an old book and it really struck home. There's too much truth in it for my liking. How many of you can say the same.

********************

Around the corner I have a friend
In this great city that has no end
Yet the days go by and weeks rush on
And before I know it, a year is gone

And I never see my old friend's face
For life is a swift and terrible race
He knows I like him just as well
As in the days when I rang his bell
And he rang mine

If, we were younger then,
And now we are busy, tired men
Tired of playing a foolish game
Tired of trying to make a name

"Tomorrow" I say "I will call on Jim"
"Just to show that I'm thinking of him"
But tomorrow comes and tomorrow goes, And distance between us grows and grows.

Around the corner yet miles away
"Here's a telegram sir" "Jim died today"
And that's what we get and deserve in the end
Around the corner, a vanished friend

**************

If you love someone, tell them
Remember always to say what you mean
Seize the day and have no regrets
Most importantly, stay close to your friends and family, for they have helped make you the person that you are today and are what it's all about anyway.

**************************

Pass this along to your friends. Let it make a difference in your day and theirs.
The difference between expressing love and having regrets is that the regrets may stay around forever.

***************************

Sorry have got to go - there are a few phone calls I must make!!!!!
