A Thank you to all of you for your support and encouragement. You help me go on against terrible health problems so I will be here for my family.

The Value of Women

Time passes.
Life happens.
Distance separates.
Children grow up.
Jobs come and go.
Love waxes and wanes.
Men don't do what they're supposed to do.
Hearts break.
Parents die.
Colleagues forget favors.
Careers end.
BUT.........
Sisters are there,
No matter how much time and how
Many miles are between them.
A girl friend is never farther away
Than needing her can reach.
When you have to walk that lonesome valley and you have to walk it by yourself,
The women in your life
Will be on the valley's rim, cheering you on,
Praying for you, pulling for you,
Intervening on your behalf,
Awaiting with open arms at the Valleys' end.
Sometimes, they will even break the rules and walk beside you...
Or come in and carry you out.
Girlfriends, daughters, granddaughters, daughters-in-law, sisters, sisters-in-law, Mothers, Grandmothers , aunties, nieces, cousins, and extended family,
All bless our life!
The world wouldn't be the same without women, and neither would I.
When we began this adventure called Womanhood, we had no idea of the incredible joys or sorrows that lay ahead.
Nor did we know how much we would need each other.
Every day, we need each other still.
 
Thank you for being there when I need you!
