Hmmm...

I have been thinking a lot lately about friends. Perhaps I am a bit more sensitive to using that word to describe people since one of my best ones is gone forever. I have always been the person that had high expectations of my friends and Don really changed that about me. He made me see that not everyone was as dedicated or thoughtful as I wanted them to be. He was.

That said...in rough times, in sad times, in happy times, in trying times you find out who truly cares about you. I find myself perplexed at trying to figure people out. I sit in wonder how people that are my "friends" haven't really called to see how Alex is doing or to ask if he has found a job. I wonder if people think about it and are just to wrapped up to pick up the phone or send an email-it just saddens me.

I have a feeling that once this is over there will be fewer people that I use that special "f'" word to describe becaue in the end they simply don't deserve it.

Friends call. Friends care. Friends reach out to offer their love, concern and help when people that mean something to them are going through a trying time-even when life is busy.

I have a friend that is in need of extreme prayer-her name is Elisa. Please put her and her family in your prayers.
