We all go through things in this world. Some good and some bad.. Some things we share with every body. Some things we share with only a select few and some things we keep to ourselves. I am going through a lot lately. one of my family members is very sick, one of my family members is not doing right by anybody and my cat has cancer. Every day is a new day and often an unexpected adventure.
Yesterday was a bit much for me and I needed an escape from my reality. I sought out my sISTA gIRL for a brief respite. She let me shed a few tears, listened to my tale of woe and then took me out. We went to a lovely, peaceful area. It was full of wide expanses of green grass, beautiful verdant trees and blossoming trees. Ii also smelled like serenity - soft and gently sweet. Then she took me to church. It was a short, easy service with not a lot of people. It was quiet and tranquil and uplifting. The she took me to eat. We had salad and shellfish and wine and we laughed and talked together without looking at the time or our cellphones.She satisfied my heart, my soul, and my belly. The time she spent with me lifted my spirits and gave me a chance to re-balance so I could go back to my reality.
I know I have said this before but friends are a blessing from above. they share your joys and your griefs, your up and your downs, your good times and your bad. They are a source of laughter and comfort. My friends have been a source of strength for me and I am grateful for them. I am proud to be their friend and to call them mine. We are happy to be establishing a friendship with you who read our blog and I am truly happy to share my stories and posts with you.
Today ... listen, lend an ear, spend some time together, enjoy each other ... basically do what I know you can do so well ... be a friend.
