I can't imagine living my life without friends. I think it is awesome that I have true friends all over the country. I'm not talking about acquaintances, I'm talking about good friends. People who check up on me and I check up on them. People who when you call, it is like you haven't been apart in years. I've got real friends in other parts of Alabama, Georgia, Mississippi, LA, North Carolina, Texas, and Washington. I hope that I live up to my part of the friendship. I pray that treat them with the same respect and love that they give me. Some of my old friends don't try to stay in touch as much as I would like but there are many who keep in touch. We pray for each other and bear one another's burdens. To those of you who are my friends, thanks. I just hope I keep my part of the deal!
