It usually takes me a few days to recover after I visit my daughter.  She's living her dream in Kentucky.  Good for her!  Time to get my big girl pants on and move forward!  Wrote this after coming home this weekend.     Missing you...     I only cried once today   Missing you just this way   A one minute smile   Just for a while   Missing you – will it go away?     A little time gives relief   A steady stream of busy things   Pulling me away from life   Reality or just a lie?     I only cried once today   Thinking about the time I don’t have   in sweet moments of nothingness   And time filled with less, no stress   Missing you – missing time     Filling in moments of the day   Cluttered with important things   That make the feelings go away   That make the feelings fade     Single thoughts to focus on   Remember just the good   I only cried once today   Rejoicing in what I could
Our friendships are never coincidental. They are formed by God, through his love and his knowing exactly what we need, at just the right time. Every friendship is like a petal on a flower. It plays an important role in completing a beautiful picture. Friends are the "petals" that make our lives beautiful. They are the people who bring joy and color to our lives. Allow God to work in you and through you, knowing you are a special "petal" in someone's life.
