A salute to old friends

There is something to be said for having a long conversation with an old friend that you have not spoken to in a while. Every once in a great while someone walks into your life at just the right moment, a moment that you are weakened by the trials that plague you and you feel all alone. But they get it, because they are walking that same path and you find solus (sp?) knowing that you are not the only one God is molding through trials and tribulations. And from then on, somehow your lives follow a general path that ensures that your paths converge just at the right moment when you really need it because that is the only person that could possibly understand what you are feeling at that moment. (That song "I saw God today" comes to mind because this is yet another amazing way that he continues to show me that he is there and he listens.) Its so amazing how you can just pick up right where you left off and bridge the gap of months or years that you have been apart and remember all you have been through that bonds you. Thank you Misty for our great conversation. You never cease to amaze me with wisdom beyond your years and a faith that I strive for. Keep your head up and your eyes on God and he will give you the desires of your heart. If there is anything life has taught me it is that! So now I guess it is time for bed, time to cuddle with my husband and my little girl (my dog) and enjoy the simple pleasures that make life worth living and give me a reason to push through the daily grind. Thank you God for the little things....
