I have been away from the forum for a couple of weeks, but I am back now, I have missed all of you.
Here is a different kind of valentine from me to you!
TO THE GIRLS
What's so poignant about this picture?
Well, it shows a line of little girls holding hands facing the immensity of ocean waves.
Alone they might be washed away, but together they stand strong.
Thank you each for holding my hand somewhere along the way when I was facing a wave of my own.
I hope you will reach for my hand when your own wave threatens.
All of us girls..
Old and young...
Near and far...
Hold special memories of good times we've shared.
We've had our share of hard times when our friends were there to make us feel better.
We've shared...
Our hearts
Our time
Our secrets
Our fears
Our hopes
And our dreams.
Let us never break the chain of friends!
Someone will always be prettier.
Someone will always be smarter.
Their house will be bigger.
They will drive a better car.
Their children will do better in school.
And their husband will fix more things around the house.
So let it go,
Be Happy!
The prettiest woman in the world can have trouble in her heart.
And the richest woman you know, she's got the car, the house, the clothes....might be lonely.
And the Word says 'If I have not Love, I have nothing.'
So, again, love you.
Love who you are.
Look in the mirror in the morning and smile and say
'I am too blessed to be stressed ....too anointed to be disappointed!'
I like that!
'Winners make things happen.
Losers let things happen'
Be Blessed, ladies and pass this on to encourage another woman.
'To the world you might be one person,
But to one person you just might be the world.'
SEND THIS TO YOUR FAVORITE WOMEN - I JUST DID!
HERE'S TO YOU MY FRIENDS
If you are lucky enough to live in the mountains you are lucky enough.

Debbie, I LOVE the picture. Wish I could hug you. Are you near Colorado Springs? Funny, I say "If you are lucky enough to live at the beach, you are lucky enough", and I am. Joey

I hope many more see this to see how lucky we are to have each other, and the little things do not matter. All for one and one for all, love only and kind words.
Farmgirl Hugs,
Deb

Hi Shannon, I could not get all the wonderful pictures that went with the sentiment on the thread but they are all on my blog if anyone wanted to check out the rest of the photos.
My niece sent it to me yesterday morning for Valentine's Day and I knew I had to share it with all of you, I am so happy everyone enjoyed it, it is just so perfect!
Farmgirl Hugs,
Deb
