That Henri Nouwen quote blows me away! It’s so important just to be with the people we love–not to fix, just to be and to touch.
Thank you!

I feel an increased awareness of this today.

Both times, we had significant and meaningful conversations that I just cherish.

And, of course, I love the Kindred Heart reunions at the Florida Christian Writers conference. We never have enough time to talk!

My word verification: gingilla. I like the way it rolls off my tongue.

Friendship takes communication, that’s for sure. Then there are those friends you communicate with once a year and when you get together, it’s like you haven’t been away.

What a blessing friendship is.
