Friends

For your consideration…

I love this picture for so many reasons. I love its simplicity. I loved its silliness. I love the accessibility of its convass. All truly represent friendship and more.

Sometimes friends are born into our family, but most often not. Friends are people we acquire throughout our life journey. They attach themselves to our hearts and we the theirs. They don’t take up space. They expand it. They make our hearts bigger and better. They prop it up when it gets hurt. Their ears give our words a home. Their words give our minds advice and things to ponder. While they may judge they don’t let their judgment interfere with the strength of the friendship. Friends are blessings.

Let’s count our blessings today.

That is the HOPE. And so it is.

Bit by bit, piece by piece, HOPE by HOPE action steps anyone can take…

-Affirm…“I am loved.”

=Remember…You are the keeper of your light. Wherever you go, there can be nodarkness.

-Meditate/pray…ask…”What is my next step for my highest good and the highest good of all?”

-Drink lots of water.

-Get outdoors and take in at least 10 deep breaths.

-Count your friends as the blessings they are.
