a peaceful empty house
empty except for me. a time to relish.
today is my best budbud's birthday. she finally gets to know what if feels like to be 31 when i've been feeling it for 3 months. i'm already working my way up to feeling the 32 and she's just embarking on the 31 feelings. friends are big-time blessings. i went through periods of friendlessness when i was younger, and i used to cry and cry and pray and beg and plead to Heavenly Father to send me some friends. if i could have seen ahead then, i would have been comforted. i never expected that he would answer me with such abundance. but that's what he does. like it says in matthew, he knows how to give good gifts. my friendship with her is one of the things that gives me roots. i love the way we can talk and talk and talk. we love to discuss communication and people and why they do the things they do, and what they should do, and ourselves and why we do the things we do, and what we should do, and we share a love in beauty products and aroma therapy (things she introduced to me) we love to scan the jewelry racks and displays and point out our faves and ponder them, and we share a love of purses and ethnic foods. we like a good cheesey indian love story. i love the way we can laugh and get our kicks out of the way we talk and the ways of talking that we make up. i love that i can count on her to see the good in me when i need her to, and to forgive the bad. she is a woman of compassion and wisdom. i admire her integrity and her strength. i admire her acts of thoughtfulness and kindness. she does her best when she has something to do whether it be a shell picture frame or a project at work. i like the way that she enjoys people and they way she laughs with a kind of wonder at the funny things people do and say. i like the way she is always trying to understand and become better she's a giver. that's my best friend.. it's her birthday today and i celebrate her.
