Nothing compares to friends

"Treat people as if they were what they ought to be and you help them to become what they are capable of being." -Goethe

I just want all my friends to know how much I appreciate them. Sometimes I feel like I'm constantly "unloading" on everyone and doing all the talking and hardly any of the listening. Throughout my life I have been blessed with wonderful friends who truly care about me. Sometimes I wonder why I deserve to have such good friends. Right now I'm having a "rough time" with a few things and my friends mean SO MUCH to me. They listen, they encourage, the make me feel needed and wanted - I love you guys!

When you come to Utah I am buying us best friends necklaces. What do you think?

Marybeth said...

Sorry, it's me, your real BFF. I was posting some pics on MB's blog and forgot to sign out.

I was wondering why MaryBeth was commenting on her wedding night! Can't wait to get the BFF necklaces. I'm not joking either!

That's what we are here for. Take advantage of us now while we are still fresh.

This blog is so sweet. That's what I love about blogging. It allows old friends to reconnect, and I'm glad that we have that chance. And I know it sounds cliche, but that is what friends are for. I feel so blessed for all the friends I've had over the years too! I'm grateful to consider you one!

Hi Brooke, I've been out for a while - computer problems. I just wanted to say that I too have been helped so many times by friends. Some have been best friends that will stay in my life forever while others have simply passed through my life at a time I really needed them. I cherish both and can't imagine my life without them. Take care I really do miss you=)
