It's Friday. Time to reflect on those special moments that I experienced this week. This week I have been thinking alot about how important it is to share time with my friends. I am lucky because I have the time to share and I am so grateful for that. I have time to meet for coffee or lunch or take a walk with a friend. Now I can add emailing, texting, or blogging with a friend to the list of things I do because that is how so many people communicate in this busy world.
In looking back over my life there have always been people there to share things with. Some have been there for just a short time and others I have been friends with for a lifetime. Both types of friendships are important. I remember as a teenager spending hours on the phone talking over every single special moment of the day. Then when my son was young I spent time with other young mothers talking about the special things our children did or didn't do. Next came all of my friends in the school system . We spent hours talking about our lesson plans, or the school play, or the crazy things our students said and did. Now, I talk about grandchildren, or writing classes, bridge games. or my blog which has become so important to me. No matter what stage of life I have been in there have always been people who I could share special moments with. I did not always realize how important that was to me but I do now and I try not to take any of it for granted. Friends are special and to all of mine I want to say, "Thank you." I have been so lucky to have so many good friends throughout my life and I know that I will meet many more people that I will be privileged to call a friend. Each moment that we spend together is special and for your friendship and for those times we spend together talking, laughing, and having fun I will always be grateful!
