Friendship 2
.... if he had all the other goods of life.
We tend to consider people friends, even though they are not close and do not spend much time with them. Examples of these might be colleagues, fellow students, neighbors and even your mailman.

Fun With Starters
.... itself. If the starter relay doesn’t click when you try to crank the engine, either the starter relay circuit is open or the relay itself is history.

Fear 2

Change goes hand in hand with fear, for change is the cause of all fear. Even positive change can leave one in fear: the first day of school, a new job, moving day, a wedding, the birth of a child.
