Georgia O'Keeffe said: "Nobody sees a flower, really it is so small. We haven't the time - and to see takes time, like to have a friend takes time."
I like that quote a lot. I look out at my sea of friends - old friends, new friends, haven't spoken to them in months but we are still close friends friends, family members who are friends friends. I consider them all and love them for all they are and all they aren't. As I in turn hope they love me too for my strengths, weaknesses and idiosyncracies.
Phone friends, dinner once every two months friends, adventure friends, laugh out loud with friends, cry with friends - all "for keeps" friends. I consider the people in my life, the concious choices made that feed the glorious circle of friends in my life and I feel blessed and honored to be among them.
Thank you, thank you for yesterday, today and tomorrow. I've got all the time in the world for you.
