I just love random titles....I have great friends in my life. They are forgiving, generous, humorous, loyal, and good people. Many I have known for many years and although I don't see them all the time, when we do get together it is like time has not passed between us. Over the last year I have not realized how lucky I am to have these women in my life. Things have changed in their lives, getting married, boyfriends, children, growing up (so to speak), moving, just them living their lives. However, it always comes back to us as friends. We share different stories and talk about different things but somehow those women remain in my life and take me for who I am as a person. Not requiring me to change or become something I am not. I can be me around them and they see exactly who I am. I believe that we are all still growing and becoming who were are supposed to be in this life and the fact that we can still come back to the same point together means a great deal.
Not everyone can say they have friends who I think would lay down in traffic for me. First many would beg the question why is she in traffic but they would be there for me in an instant no matter where they are they would be there.
When I was a kid growing up I thought friends were people you grew to be like that they always had something better or hiding something a secret to living. But that lasted about a minute till I figured that they were on a journey as I am to find who they were meant to become. Some of them became it right away (lucky) but others like me required more time on the journey to carve the path that they chose.
In a sense we are still carving our path out and trying to enjoy what comes our way. For the past week I have reflected on what has happened to my path. I was so passionate about my life and kind of gave up my life to help my family. I sort of gave up on my path. I promised myself last year that I wouldn't make a new years resolution, but this year I am making a few of them and starting with getting back to my OWN PATH.
So for 2010 I want to say to my Diamonds ladies this is our year to shine. So SHINE ON and enjoy your path for this is our time.
