Blogging/Journaling/Complaining on an entirely inconsistent basis. |
Sometimes in life a person you like comes along and if you are fortunate, a friendship develops. I found one such person here on wdc. Ruby StandingDEER has been a remarkable person to know. She is always there for encouraging words when I am down, always makes me laugh, and puts up with my ridiculous rants and sometimes absolute nonsense. How many people do you know that sit up with a sick critter all night? Have I ever visited with her face-to-face? No, Talked to her on the telephone? No. But that doesn't keep her from being the other side of my heart, the finisher of my thoughts, and the one I know I can always count on. Yes, she is sensitive, maybe too much sometimes, but, gosh, my list of not-so-good traits far outweigh that and she hasn't seemed to notice them. Besides, do you want a sensitive friend or a nagging, hard-hearted one? I sometimes worry because she takes things so seriously and I think that makes her sick and gives her migraines. If you have ever had just one migraine, you know of what I speak. She has suffered much, but continued to put one foot in front of the other and keep on keeping on. I admire her for her struggles and her courage to fight for herself and others. I appreciate all that she teaches me from her writings. And, that is a lot for she really is a gifted writer. If you want proof, visit her Circle stories. I have had the pleasure of reading and enjoying everyone. Those stories have taught me much and I think they could teach us all a lesson or two.
I just wanted to say "Thanks, Ruby. You have made my life richer for being my friend." HUGS.......KISSES.......MORE HUGS........and MORE KISSES! Love, Rix |
