  • Vous aurez votre chance de reconnaître vos vrais amis pendant les phases les plus difficiles de votre vie; Tout comme vous serez en mesure de voir les étoiles seulement quand il est absolument sombre. Vos vrais amis sont ceux qui vous aident quand vous êtes 'down and out.' Amis applaudissent vous quand vous vous sentez triste, et vous chercher quand vous tombez. Vous ne devez pas oublier vos vrais amis et aider leurs mains quand vous vous levez à nouveau. Les vrais amis sont rares, mais ils sont toujours là, tout comme les étoiles qui brillent dans le ciel.
    Deodatta V. Shenai-Khatkhate
