*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 you. *
*A girlfriend is never farther away than needing her. *
*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, *
*and waiting with open arms at the valley's 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.
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. **
*help make your life meaningful. **
