Hand In Hand

A friend is one to whom you can pour out the contents of your heart, chaff and grain alike. Knowing that the gentlest of hands will take and sift it, keep what is worth keeping and with a breath of kindness, blow the rest away.
~ Unknown

How inspiring is the innocence of little girls, walking hand in hand. I wish these traits of innocence and trust stayed just as strong into adulthood.

But alas, we suffer life's blows and become jaded as we get older.  At least that's what happened to me.  I wish that I never felt like I had to be on guard and could rest assured that I would be accepted just as I am.

Childhood friends are so precious.  I had a friend named Synthia who was the greatest treasure from my otherwise unpleasant childhood.  I look back and wish that I could relive the time I had with her and could be as close to her now as I was then.

I will always and forever treasure Synthia and the close friendship we had.
