Friendship- sometimes in our darkest hours it's easy to forget how important true friendship is in our lives. Yesterday evening a wonderful friend of mine came for a visit. We talked and laughed and cried the entire evening away. Today I am feeling refreshed and renewed. I feel like my soul has been cleansed. My grief is not gone, and probably won't be for awhile, but with the help of my friend it has become lighter. I don't feel like my entire being is weighed down by my grief anymore. Thank you Tera for the hope and the peace that you've brought to me!
