Friends

I love my children.  I love my husband. I love my calling in the Church. I love my job. BUT-I miss my friends!  When I get on Facebook and see all the things my friends are doing together...my heart hurts.  I miss talking with them, hanging out with them, laughing, and reminising.  In honor of my inner circle of trust I would like to say this:
I've heard it said
That people come into our lives for a reason
Bringing something we must learn
And we are led
To those who help us most to grow
If we let them
And we help them in return
Well, I don't know if I believe that's true
But I know I'm who I am today
Because I knew you...
It well may be
That we will never meet again
In this lifetime
So let me say before we part
So much of me
Is made of what I learned from you
You'll be with me
Like a handprint on my heart
And now whatever way our stories end
I know you have re-written mine
By being my friend...
Like a ship blown from its mooring
By a wind off the sea
Like a seed dropped by a skybird
In a distant wood
Who can say if I've been
Changed for the better?
I do believe I have been
Changed for the better
And because I knew you...
I have been changed for good...
-Kristen Chenoweth (Wicked)

I want you all to know I love you and I miss you and I hope to spend quality time with all of you soon!
