Girlfriends

[Bike Goddess]

This message was sent to me by a dear friend. I am passing it along to all of you.

Subject: To the wonderful women in my life

I THINK THIS SAYS IT ALL......
Time passes.
Life happens.

Distance separates.

Children grow up and move away.
Children move home again.

Jobs come and go.

Love waxes and wanes.

Men don't call when they say they will.

Hearts break.

Parents become ill and die.

Colleagues forget favors.

Careers end.

BUT...........

Girlfriends are there, no matter how much time and how many miles are
between you.

A girlfriend is never farther away than needing her can reach.

When you have to walk that lonesome valley and you have to walk it by
yourself, your girlfriends will be on the valley's rim, cheering you
on, praying for you, pulling for you, intervening on your behalf, and
waiting with open arms at the valley's end.

Sometimes, they will even break the rules and walk beside you.

Or come in and carry you out.

Girlfriends, daughters, sisters, mothers, grandmothers, aunties, nieces,
cousins, and extended family, bless our life!

The world wouldn't be the same without them, and neither would I.

When we began this adventure called womanhood, we had no idea of the
incredible joys or sorrows that lay ahead. Nor did we know how much we
would need each other.

Every day, we need each other still.

Pass this on to the women who help make your life work.
I just did.
