Unconditional Love

Trying to be the light in the darkness for my friend has been a real challenge. As I have posted before, I am a need to know person. When things happen and results are uncovered, I research. I must know the outcome even if it’s not what we all need to see or hear. This DARKNESS is looming, the end is near and making it through the tunnel to the light has been hard to watch.

Wasn’t she supposed to be here to watch her grandbabies grow, to help support her daughter, to guide her son, wasn’t she supposed to grow old with me? God has a plan for her and we were only a part of it for a short time. The healing is going to take a long time. Her family is going to be lost. I am here and always will be for them because they are my people.

It amazes me that through the DARKNESS in any situation, there is always LIGHT. Cathy bought me a yard decoration for my birthday with a fairy sitting on the moon, it lights up at night. When she saw it on Amazon she had to get it because it reminded her of me. She said, “It shines bright just like you my friend, keep shining and never lose that light.” That touched my soul and for her to go out of her way and find something special in that really warmed my heart.

I have loved my friend for over 37 years now, and as much as I hate to lose what we have, I know I am going too. I have lost friends in the past and family members but this one hits home. She is the Aunt to my kids, the Thelma to my Louise and my person I could share anything with. I will definitely feel lost, but I know she will always be looking over us and smiling down knowing I will be there for her kids and grandkids.

In your darkest hour my friend, I will be your light. I will hold you up and cheer you on. I will comfort you and l will always love you. You are stronger than you know and you will forever be in my heart. God has chosen you and now your journey home will bring you peace and healing. I love you Cathy.
