Friendship.

friendship.

friendship comes in all shapes and sizes

it is the family we wish we had

it is our inspiration

our accountability

there are times that we struggle with it

and those are the times, I have found, that you must remind yourself

that your friend may be struggling too

one day one of my best girlfriends and I were at an outdoor quilt show

she is 5'-0" olive skinned, I am 5'-8" and blonde/blue

someone overheard our exchange and asked, 

"are you two sisters?"

and before I could say a word, my friend simply and calmly replied,

"if she was my sister, I would have killed her a long time ago!"

have patience

and be thankful for whatever kind of friendship you have

for it is truly the best gift of all

that friend that makes us more than the sum of who we already are

and urges us to be more than we could ever hope to be
