Friends
Friendship is born at that moment when one person says to another: "What! You, too? Thought I was the only one." (C.S. Lewis)
Part two of the archive meme is about friends. I am so blessed with friends of all kinds, from those with whom I share my deepest feelings to more casual relationships. When we lived overseas, friends became the family I missed and those friends, scattered around the world, are still dear today.
My family members are also my friends. My daughters are my best friends. But throughout my family, my mother, sister, mother-in-law and sisters-in-law share similarities and differences that we all appreciate about each other.
And I've met some wonderful new friends during this blogging journey. Inspiring, like-minded, generous women with whom I can say along with C.S. Lewis, "What! You, too? Thought I was the only one."
