BFF

I'm so glad that people actually read my blog! And I had to put this comment to my "Keeping in Touch" blog on the main site, because it truely touched me. It's good to know that there are friends who understand that even if we're apart now, we can be together again in the future. Suzanne, you are truely a best friend. (Now don't go thinking I'll name one of my children after you or something....Hehe!)

Hi there! I think this is an appropriate time to share something that I truly believe in (yes, I do believe in something 8). People come into your life for a reason, a season or a lifetime. When you figure out which it is, you know exactly what to do.

When someine is in your life for a REASON, it is usually to meet a need you have expressed ouwardly or inwardly. They have come to assist you through a difficulty, to provide you with guidance and support, to aid you physically, emotionally, or spiritually. They may seem like a godsend, and they are. They are there for the reason you need them to be.Then, without any wrong doing on your part or at an inconvenient time, this person will say or do something to bring the relationship to an end. sometimes they die. Sometimes they walk away. Sometimes they act up or out and force you to take a stand. What we must realize is that our need has been met, our desire fufilled; their work is done. It is now time to move on.

When people come into your life for a SEASON, it is because your turn has come to share, grow or learn. They may bring you an experience of peace or make you laugh. They may teach you something you have never done. They usually give you an unbelievable amount of joy. Believe it! It's real. But, only for a season.

LIFETIME relationships teach you lifetime lessons; those things you must build upon in order to have a solid emotional foundation. Your job is to accept the lesson, love the person/people (anyway); and put what you have learned to use in all other relationships and areas of life. It is said that love is blind but friendship is clairvoyant.

Whether we talk daily or every 5 years, you're one of my LIFETIME friends... so you're stuck w/ me forever. 8> Good luck w/ that!
