Eleanor Roosevelt's wisdom spans across generations. Can only wonder what her opinion would be of the present day turmoil. Her touching thoughts on friendship alone - "Many people will walk in & out of your life, but only true friends will leave footprints in your heart..." is a classic. It touches on anger, betrayal & Faith. Ongoing thanks, PassItOn for continuing to offer such inspiring daily messages.
