Sisterhood of Girl Friends

Another e-mail full of feeling from that very same friend, Sara.  I'd like to share this with all, especially my sisters and girl friends... there's not much difference between a sister and a friend!


Time passes
Life happens
Distance separates
Children grow up
Jobs come and go.  Love waxes and wanes. 
Men don't do what they're suppose to do.
Hearts break. Parents die.
Colleagues forget favors.  Careers end.

BUT

Sisters are there, no matter how much time and how many miles are between you.  A girl friend is never farther away than needing her can reach.

When you have to walk that lonesome valley and you have to walk it by yourself, the women in your life will be on the valley's rim, cheering you on, praying for you, pulling for you, intervening on your behalf, and waiting with open arms at the valley's end.
 
Sometimes, they will even break the rules and walk beside you, or come in and carry you out. 

Girlfriends, daughters, granddaughters;
Daughter-in-laws, sisters, sister-in-laws;
mothers, grandmothers, aunts, nieces, cousins,
and extended family
all bless our life!

When we began this adventure called womanhood, we had no idea of the incredible joys or sorrows that lay ahead.  Nor did we know how much we would need  each other.  Every day, we need each other still.
