For All My Beautiful Flowers!!!
I originally wrote this for Gina on her birthday. I was asked to share it on my blog.
Friendships like flowers can be purposefully planted and tended or found unexpectedly in the wild, in your own backyard or even on the side of the road...
Friendships like flowers come in many varieties but each has a timeless purpose
Friendships like flowers need air, food and water (okay, this might be a stretch but think of it as the air you need for conversation and food and water – well, dinner with the girls and a coke or coffee will do just fine)
Friendships like flowers can be annuals, lasting only for a brief season or they can be perennials enduring many seasons, the winds of change and even some droughts… yet they are precious and bring joy to those who experience them even when they know they are at rest for the winter.
May the friendships that we all share prove to be perennials because the winds of change will always blow and many seasons will surely come and surely go…
