Your friend sounds like an amazing person. I will check out that book – I love all different genre’s.
she is, thank you. we have been friends for over 30 years
That is truly amazing!! Do you credit anything in particular for such a long and lasting friendship? I have friendships that are 20+ years old. For me it’s about maintaining contact. Being a good listener. And forgiveness.
she is a loving, caring, and accepting person. she knows all my weaknesses and good point. she never judges but gently stirs my thinking into other directions. i love her very much in a christian, sister way.
Wow, I am really humbled reading that, thank you so much sharing!
