I have only been a member of WWB since February.
Yet in that space
of time I have met & enjoyed getting to know Sandra, the organist. She & I had a great time together.
I feel extremely lucky getting to know Carol's private side.
It's scary, we are a lot alike.
The best thing that has happened however, has been my friendship with Beth & her girls. I feel like a member of their family & for those who know me,  you also know
that I cherish my family very dearly.
Therefore being accepted into Beth's family means a lot to me.   
I'm sure through the years to come
Beth & I will remain good friends.
My Mother used to say, "God gave you your family,
Thank God you can choose your friends."
I'm lucky I have a wonderful family & now
a wonderful friend in Beth.
The interesting thing is I feel like I've known her all my life.
Thank You Beth 
 

A Friend

What is a friend? I'll tell you.
It is a person with whom you dare to be yourself.
Your soul can go naked with her.
She seems to ask you to put on nothing,
only to be what you really are.
When you are with her, you do not
have to be on your guard.
You can say what you think,
as long as it is genuinely you.
She understands these contradictions in your nature
that cause others to misjudge you.
With her you breathe freely-you can avow your
little vanities and envies and absurdities and in
opening them up to her ... they are dissolved
on the white ocean of her loyalty.
She understands. You can weep with her,
laugh with her, pray with her...and through
and underneath it all she sees, knows and loves you.
A Friend, I repeat, is one with whom
You Dare To Be Yourself!
