Gratitude # 13

I am grateful for Friends. I have had many good friends in my life. I have learned a lot from all of them and have had many hours of fun, living, loving and lots of good company with them all. Even with all the miles that separate some of us they are still near to my heart. I wrote about one last night and I will share more in the coming post of those who are extra special, but they are all special to me.
I even appreciate those friends who are gone from my life. They are gone because our paths have changed or we moved and lost contact. You know how it goes. At the time they were in my life they added to my life with their friendship. Some of the friends that are gone are not forgotten, I wonder how they are and how their life turned out. I hope they are well and life has turned out good for them.
I enjoy and am grateful for the new friends that I am making and how they enrich my life also.
Isn't it wonderful to have friends in our life and not to be alone. They help us grow and do things we won't do by ourselves. I hope that they view me as a good friend like I view them.

Here is a picture of one of my friends from Nantucket, I meet while visiting my grandparents. We wrote for many years even up until high school. Gone but not forgotten.
And I just love that social media thing that has allowed me to
re-connect with lots of old friends.
