Today I want to say thank you to my friends. I have many great friendships with people I have known all of my life. To have friendships that are 40 or so years old and solid is amazing. I have a small circle of ladies that I hang out with 3-4 times a week. I know sometimes we drive one another crazy but it's a circle that remains very strong. We accept each other for who we are. They are a group so close knit that if there is a issue it gets resolved. No one talks about each other in a negative way. We made a promise to talk things out and resolve it so there is no negativity. It's been a few years that we have all become friends and it's a blessing. To know you have someone to talk to at any time is a joy. These ladies have been in my life for about 8 years and I am happy to call them my friends. We do all kinds of things together and have included our kids and spouses as well. It's nice being able to hang out one on one or in a group or with our families.
Are you as fortunate to be blessed with amazing friends???

You don't have to be in the same place. Friends are always just a phone call away!!!!

There are many levels of friendship. But, some grow to be very strong, like yours. You're fortunate enough to have a good strong friendship for 40 years! That's something else!! And as it's said, 'Friendship is the one ship that cannot sink', the bond formed is really amazing, it can grow to even reach the bond between us and family. I do have a few really good friends and I hope I get even more! xD

Having friends is very important in life. All of my friendships are based on loyalty, trust and respect. They last because we make them work. Sure not everything is rosy all the time. But we tackle issues when they come up, resolve it and move on. No one holds grudges or anything like that. I am blessed. I always welcome new friendships. You can never have to many!

It is truly a blessing to really have some of the great friends right in the world. With many people who are rather cutthroat and out for themselves, it is really something that is inspiring to have some people who actually do seem to care more often than not. I just find that things are great and a bit better when friends are great and supportive. And really, honestly speaking, people would not be my friends if I didn't think they were great.
It can be a lonely world out there, and a dark world without any level of support right out there. I think that we have all been at that point to some extent where we feel like we have been closed right off to the entire world and it is rather bad to say the very least, but it is just something that we don't have to feel all of the time. Friends are there when we need that added helping hand that will pull us through everything in life.
