They give you perspective. They provide the best hugs on earth, a caring ear to listen, a loving 'kick in the pants', a carefully timed word of wisdom, a wake up call, sometimes they drag you out of bed (kicking and screaming) - out into the daylight, sometimes they give you a safe place to escape when it gets to be too much, friends call you at 5 pm to see what you are doing at 6, they are essential wonderful blessings, they pull your covers when you need to get real. Friends pick up the phone when a text is not enough, and show up when you don't pick up. I am so thankful for ever present friends...through trials, life, wedding planning, and more life. I'm a lucky gal.
