There is no way I could get up that hill now! I remember taking a school field trip up there and yearning to stay and just drink in everything.<br /><br />Thanks to you, and everyone else in Outerblogness, I feel much safer to test my wings so some day I will be able to fly. Thank you everyone, for the rehab!<br /><br />Supernova - Totally. It's no wonder there are so many sappy friend songs that exist!<br /><br />FFG - That is so true. She was/is my sounding board when I need a female perspective or just can't talk to Gluby about something. <br /><br />8HrLunch - I did not even realize how obligatory the friendships often were until I took a step back and had a real friend. Often, the inadequacies I felt with others was due to the fact that I felt people were only being nice to me because they had to. I still have inadequacies, but I know she doesn't feel she has to be in my life, which definitely makes it more precious.Lemon Blossomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17791715547019751455noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6798465722570626363.post-63956434582333232002007-01-23T06:14:00.000-08:002007-01-23T06:14:00.000-08:00Good friends are often the ones that get us throug...Good friends are often the ones that get us through the toughest times in life.

She has put up with me!<br /><br />Michelle - I never thought I would find someone like A, especially because at the time we met I thought there was no way life would ever be good again. Fortunately for me (and Gluby - I could talk with her about church issues that I couldn't talk with him about yet) we did find each other.Lemon Blossomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17791715547019751455noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6798465722570626363.post-74875543603056380902007-01-22T08:37:00.000-08:002007-01-22T08:37:00.000-08:00Sounds like you two have an amazing relationship. ...Sounds like you two have an amazing relationship.

I was thinking today about how a...I love you !!!!!<br /><br />I was thinking today about how amazing it was: there we were, too women who've been so deeply blindsided by the very things we believed in most, and there were those two beautiful birds. I can think of a hundred times when we looked just like they did while they were being held. They had that frozen with fear look, like what they wanted most was to just stop existing. Like they were trying to pretend they didn't exist. But now, my dear sister, we're like them in that moment when they were thrown into the air. I could hear their wings come open and it made my heart catch. And then they flew so exquisitely fast! My last picture of it shows a lot of sky and just a fleck of a bird in its midst. <br /><br />To you, then, and to the big big sky where we belong. No permanent cages for us! <br /><br />You are so brave, and so honest and kind. I'm proud to know you.<br /><br />A.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
