I am lucky to have a varied group of friends… some similar to one another… some as different as night and day… but when it comes to the friendships I have formed… I wouldn’t have it any other way. I have a friend whose favorite season is Summer… and another who loves the Spring… I have a friend who loves to dance… and another who can’t dance but loves to sing I have a friend I’ve known most of my life… and another I’ve only recently met… I have a friend who dislikes animals and another who surrounds herself with pets. I have a friend who loves ice cream… another friend who only eats cake I have a friend who hates the sight of reptiles and another who loves to play with snakes. I have a friends who is an artist… another who isn’t but loves to draw I have a friend who is a doctor and another who practices law…. I have a friend who loves the beach…she loves the weather when it’s hotter I have a friend who loves the cold and won’t go near the water. Yes…I consider myself lucky… in the morning when the day begins and in the evening when it ends at the myriad of connotations when I say I have a friend.
