love my friends

Today, I want to express extreme gratitude for my friends!

I love my friends.

The ones who help me do things that are too hard for me right now to do on my own. And for understanding that this is hard for me when I have always taken care of myself.

The ones who speak love into me as I walk through a rough chapter, helping me to keep my focus when I have lost the direction, motivation and determination to stay the fight.

The ones that lift a hand to do a chore that I do not have the energy for it.

The ones that speak my love languages, knowingly or unknowingly.

The ones that hug me and say I care. Be you. Keep sharing your message. I love you. You matter.

The ones that encourage me to love me and rest.

The ones who will take time to meet for coffee, breakfast, lunch, dinner, a concert, church, or stop by to say hello.

The ones who send text messages.

The ones who call and if I don't answer don't get pissed off.

The ones who understand and when they don't, seek to understand deeper because they aren't gonna loose sight of who I really am, not getting upset over one comment or post I make on Facebook.

The ones who understand the emotional and physical pain I am going through. And if they don't, who just simply say I am sorry. They aren't trying to fix me.

The ones who know that I want a deeper level of transformation.

The ones who believe in me. Maybe even more then I believe in myself.

Thank YOU for being in my Circle of Friends.

poem ~ not alone

You're not alone,
I'm right here with you.

You're not alone,
I see the choices you have to make.

You're not alone,
I know the pressure of the day.

You're not alone,
Even when it feels like it.

You're not alone,
I deeply love you.

You're not alone,
I'm showing you signs on how to take the next step.

You're not alone,
I've heard your fervent prayers.

You're not alone,
I see the needs you have.

You're not alone,
I've heard your cry of desperation.

You're not alone,
This moment too shall pass.

You're not alone,
You don't have to play it safe.

You're not alone,
I see the pain in your eyes.

You're not alone,
Let me carry this for you.

You're not alone,
I'm writing your unique story.

You're not alone,
I created this beautiful day for you.

You're not alone,
There is meaning in everything you experienced.

You're not alone,
Just keep breathing. Deeply.

You're not alone,
Hear the still small voice inside you.

You're not alone,
Take heart and be courageous.

You're not alone,
Strength comes in facing your fears.

You're not alone,
Joy comes when you look up.

You're not alone,
Choose faith over doubt.

You're not alone,
Consider all the great things that have been done for you.

You're not alone,
You've been given incredible freedom.

You're not alone,
Look up and see beyond the clouds.

You're not alone,
There is purpose in your pain.

You're not alone,
Peace is one of the benefits of faith.

You're not alone,
Even when you feel like giving up.

You're not alone,
Continue to be brave.

You're not alone,
I'm filling your heart up with love.

You're not alone,
The key is on your pocket.

You're not alone,
I can trust. In you. In me. In them.

You're not alone,
I'm not afraid.

You're not alone,
You will never loose the battle because you're on the winning team.

You're not alone,
I've made an imprint on your heart.

You're not alone,
Don't loose heart in the fight.

You're not alone,
For you are an overcomer.

You're not alone,
I made you a promise.

You're not alone,
I am never gonna leave.

You're not alone,
Will you believe me?
