"A real friend is one who walks in when the rest of the world walks out."
One of my FaceBook friends, orignally a dear beading artisan friend, posted this quote yesterday as her status, and I gave it a resounding FB "likes this" response. I am especially grateful today for the real friends in my life - those friends who have been with me a lifetime (one who just traveled across the country for her family and still took time to trek through our first "snowstorm" to have lunch and catch up with me :) ); those who have walked side-by-side through crisis with me and see the sun still rising gloriously on the ocean's waters each day; those who are scattered across the world and are joined with me forever in our bond of caring for each other and our common passion for the art of beading and creating; those who just know the right time to send that email, call for that cup of tea or coffee or just to chat....yes, real friends are rare and precious gifts ~ give thanks for them today and every day!
