I’ve never believed in coincidences. I believe that God puts people into your lives and they are there for a reason and sometimes a season. It’s like when I get put into different classes at school it’s always where I’m supposed to be. Every year I’ve worked at school there has been a child who really needs me.
Often I meet people that I get in with so well and then come to find out they have experienced something similar to me or they can relate in some way. I’ve met people all over the world and I’m still friends with some of them. I’m still friends with my childhood friend in Ireland. I love that woman so much and we still get on like we saw each other last week. We laugh so much and she just gets who I am. I love that.
Two years ago I lost one of my best friends to cancer. These roses are off one of the rose bushes she had ordered before she died. This year the roses are so vibrant and smell amazing and havehuge flowers on them. Everytime I see them they remind me of her. I miss her very much. I know she will have the biggest rose garden in heaven.
People come and go in our lives all the time. That’s why they are there for a season. I’m blessed to have many friends that I’ve had for a long time in my life. Friendship is very important to me. Even though I lost a friend recently I’ve come to a peace about it. I’m grateful for all who are in my life. Life is short, live it to the fullest.
Beauty from Ashes.
