Great Friends...

Picture a blush large, comfortable, Love seat, with your favorite warm blanket. You curl up tuck in the corners of the blanket and reach for your warm mug of your favorite tea take a sip and enjoy the flavor and warm go down.....

That is my description of what a GREAT friend is. Mine is Hideat Tewolde. She is my cup of tea and comfort. I get this girl even when I don't get her! AHAHAHA!! I love that we are not alike and have these amazing contrasting ways of expressing ourselves and experiencing life.

But God is good and He knows how to match em that's for sure because no matter what in mine and Hideat's relational dance we learn so much from each other and deposit so much (goodness) into each other. She is my iron and my sword at times, in the way that the proverb says "So as iron sharpens iron so does man sharpen man..." It is the same in our relationship. 

Blessed is the only word that I know of that describes how I feel about our friendship and how I feel for having her as my friend. She is not a good friend but a GREAT friend. And guess what she has her flaws as well. I know them and have been hurt by some of them but Love is a funny and amazing thing. It (Love) is the power to decide to continue to walk with the person despite the trip up or blow. Love is the answer to when you don't like the person at the moment. It has an easy description when you get along but it is in it's true description when communication is failing in a relationship, or disconnect, hurt feelings, pride, and all other issues. 

God has a sense of humor. He connected me to a girl I didn't even noticed and when I did I wasn't impressed, not knowing she would be a pillar in the midst of my accountability center and my core support group. Outside of my mom she is the second person I pass a lot of things by. She probably knows as much intimate things about me as my mom but not the same type of intimate things and honestly I am truly blessed because visa versa...

Anyway I had to share and I only hope and pray for our relationship to grow stay in tact and develop as we develop and get older....

AMEN!! Goodnight!!
