My closest friends came to be serendipitously acquaintances through circumstances... age deepened respect through several years... honesty, laughter and tears abated fears... now that we are here... by faith we persevere It seems 'to take a village' to keep me in ink... I appreciate each of you, all you do and think Two, because of you, helped me want to stay... The kindness of your ways, I still admire today June 23, 2018 QUALITIES YOU ADMIRE IN FRIENDS Contest by CAROLYN DEVONSHIRE AND JACK HORNE Sixth Place

Loyal friends who reach inside and take away the pain. Are truly what life's all about when it begins to rain. And when they offer up a hand to help you on your path. That's when you know that when together you'll survive the wrath. Love the heart in this Susan. :)
