Until We Meet Again

I said goodbye yesterday to the most precious and beautiful person I know.  It was one of the hardest things I had to do and my heart still aches over it.  Let me just tell you about Suzanne...

I met Suzanne a little over 2 years ago and God used her to change my life!  Suzanne is simply amazing...I have no other words to describe her.  She totally invested her time and energy into my life and for that I am forever grateful.  Looking back, if I had never met her - I wouldn't be where I am today.  She showed me how to love life with all of its joys and trials and more importantly to love my Lord and the scriptures.  She listened to all of my heartaches and daily worries along with my silly stories - let me just tell you that requires LOTS of patience!  I often have a lot to vent about!  But she listened with no complaints.  Suzanne believed in me when no one else did and she stood by me no matter what!  I just cannot explain to you how much this woman taught me and how much she means to me!  I recently read this quote and instantly thought of my dear friend and sister...


No distance of place or lapse of time can lessen the friendship of those who are thoroughly persuaded of each other's worth. – Robert Southey

Even though she is 6 hours away, our friendship will not fade away because I know how special she is and I still love her just as much as I did when she was literally 1 minute away.

So I will conclude with an Irish blessing that I have always loved and I am wishing this for you my wonderful friend and my sister!

"May the road rise up to meet you, may the wind be ever at your back.  May the sun shine warm upon your face and the rain fall softly on your fields.  And until we meet again, may God hold you in the hollow of His hand."


Suzanne, I love you dearly and I'm praying for you always!  Until we meet again my friend!  See you in April!!!!! :)
