Time passes.
Life happens.
Distance separates.
Children grow up.
Jobs come and go.
Love waxes and wanes.

Hearts break.
Parents die.
Colleagues forget favors.
Careers end.

BUT......
Sisters are there, no matter how much time and how many miles are between you. A girlfriend is never further away than
needing her can reach.

When you have to walk that lonesome valley and you
have to walk it by yourself, the women in your life willl be
on the valley's rim, cheering you on, praying for you, pulling
for you, intervening on your behalf, and waiting with open arms
at the valley's end.

Sometimes, they will even break the rules and walk beside
you....Or come in and carry you out. Girlfriends, daughters,
granddaughters, daughters-in-law, sisters, sisters-in-law,
mothers, grandmothers, aunties, nieces, cousins and extended
family: all bless our life.

The world wouldn't be the same without women, and neither
would I. When we began this adventure called womanhood,
we had no idea of the incredible joys or sorrows that lay ahead.
Nor did we know how much we would need each other.

Everyday, we need each other still.


Thanks,"QUILTINGBOARD" for having this wonderful place for
everyone!

That was beautiful. Thank you for sharing it.

Thank you for sharing! I believe every single word of it! :wink:

Thanks, true every word!!
Have seen a few men that also stand on that edge and do the same, with a much different point of view.
Don't quite "get it" like the women do. :)

Well said!!
