Day 26-What do you think about your friends?

I think my friends are truly amazing. I can't ask for better friends. My friends support me and love me like no others. I can't live with out them.

It is amazing how God directs our lives so just the right people will enter our lives when we need them.

Sometimes I question why I am "here," where ever here may be, but then I realize that I made the right choices because if I had not been "here" I wouldn't have met the people I have met and they wouldn't have touched my life the way they have.

Just the other day I ran into a friend of mine and wow, in the brief conversation we had I was overwhelmed with thankfulness that they are my friend.  It is amazing how people can say just the right things that you need to hear when they are in-tuned to the spirit.

Sometimes I get sad when a friends drift away, but I am learning that it's ok, they came into my life to do what needed to be done and after that job is done it is time to leave. I guess I can think of it like the guy who came over to fix my washer.  After the washer was fixed he left and I was happy he left, it would have been awkward if he had stayed. I can store a hammer in my tool checks, but you can't really store a whole person in the tool chest, even thought it would be nice, but the thing is with my luck the washer wouldn't break down again, but instead it would be my car and he wouldn't be much help if all he can do is fix washing machines. Thinking about it in this way helps me to understand it better.  I don't love these friends any less now that they are gone, I will be forever grateful for all they did for me. I may mourn their loss for a little while and once I am done I will move on. I am not the person I was when they walked into my life and neither are they. We have both moved on to greener pastures and that is ok. Neither place is better it is just different.
