Beloveds---
Our Friends are the
delicious fruit of our hearts.
Some fruit we experience often. Others are a rare delicacy that we seldom have
the opportunity to savor. Some fruit like oranges, grapefruit, kiwi or mangoes,
we must peel. Others friends are the apples, blueberries, and strawberries of
our hearts. Sometimes our Friends may even be bananas!
Through Friendship we
learn that just as no fruit tastes the same; no human has the ability or
capacity to offer us exactly what we give them. Friends may agree or
disagree. Sometimes Friends may hurt eachother and need to ask for
forgiveness. Friends may live close or far away. They may speak often or not
at all. Other Friends will forever be a mystery.
Most importantly, Friends
Are the Family We Choose. When nurtured with space and care, our Friendships
will always remain the delicious, cherished fruit of our hearts.
I Breathe Ten
Times. I Inhale Deeply. I Exhale Joyfully. Today I Am Grateful for Every
Friendship that has blossomed, shared and taught me to honor and value the Grace
and Mystery of Unconditional Love through the Many Seasons of Our
Lives.
