Friendship Surprises (Lunch)

There is something special about having a good friend, who calls you out of the blue and asks if you can meet for lunch--now. With everything I had go wrong this morning, with how little writing I've gotten done, with every stress from the last couple of weeks, I knew seeing her would help the yuck leave and I would get more writing done when I returned home. So, that's what I did. 

Sure enough, I feel better. Now, it's back to writing. CAMP NANOWRIMO, and my novel, await. 

I learned long ago to enjoy the spur of the minute, unplanned, crazy things. They are often times exactly what you need, precisely when they need it.

A Friend

There is something magical about a friend.

There are few real friends in our lives.

A Friend...:
Is the one who don't judge. Is there when the sky falls. Will get on an airplane at a moment's notice. Knows your warts, and weaknesses, and still loves you any way. Will never expect to come before your spouse or children. You can not talk to them for a year and it's like a day hasn't passed. Is the family you choose to have in your life. Will put as much into your friendship as you do. Will never hold a mistake you've made against you. Nor will they remind you of it later. Says what they mean and mean what they say. Is someone you don't have to impress and you can be you with. Knows when to be quiet and listen and when to just be there. Is a gift from God.
