Love Pink Lucy

An incredibly special friend sent this to me & I wanted to share it.

Time passes.
Life happens.
Distance separates.
Children grow up.
Love waxes and wanes.
Hearts break.
Careers end.
Jobs come and go.
Parents die.
Colleagues forget favors.
Men don't call when they say they will.
BUT..........
Women friends are there,
no matter how much time and how many miles are between them.
A girlfriend is never farther away than needing her can reach.
When you have to walk that lonesome valley and you have to walk it for yourself,
your girlfriends 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.
Daughters, Daughters-in-law, sisters, sisters-in-law, mothers,
mothers-in-law, aunties, nieces, cousins, extended family,
and women friends bless our lives!
The world wouldn't be the same without them, and neither would I.
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.
