Reaching beyond the scope of tragedy, grasping onto faith, <br />hoping to pull through it all. <br />Thinking of all the realities that can happen, discarding <br />each one in hopes of having none of them. <br />Holding out for the good and only beneficial one in my line <br />of sight. <br />Helped to think that way in times of duress by my friend, W. <br />A beautiful gift she has to offer, because she's been through <br />a lot herself and knows how it is. <br />Her advice is invaluable and she tells me like it is - <br />no bars held. <br />Grateful for her presence in my life, she's pulled through <br />some serious situations with her prayers and confidence of <br />what she tells me. <br />My only hope is that I bring hope, faith, and a little <br />laughter into her life also.<br /><br />RoseAnn V.
