One True Friend
I have been thinking a lot about my “one true friend” lately. I actually wrote a song about our relationship. I have added the lyrics below this post. I think we have lots of acquaintances and people we are close too and people who come and go in our lives, but I think sometimes there is that one special soul that you somehow find and connect with on such a deep level that it is almost supernatural. It has nothing to do with being the same except where it counts.. at the soul level. My friend and I are as different as day and night but at the core, at the heart, we are the same. I am even more thankful at this time in my life for that one true friend who loves me with all of my faults (and they are legion) and who will travel with me as we reinvent ourselves and adjust to our 50’s, 60’s, 70’s…..
It is with some hesitation on both our parts, that we move from one stage of our lives to the next, but I know without a doubt that we will make it together and we will be sitting on that front porch at the end of our lives, just like we planned.
We will talk about the year Obama was elected. We will talk about the old days with Nike (Just do it!). We will talk about American Idol. We will talk about Muffie and Odie; and my granddaughter; and goodwill trips; and Ex husbands…
I look forward to that time with my one true friend and all the time in between.
Listen to Song One True Friend
One True Friend
You see what nobody else can see
You believe all of my crazy dreams
Maybe we only get one
Maybe God just gives us one
And you are my one true friend
You are my one true friend
You feel every tear I cry
Stand by me on my darkest night
Maybe we only get one
Maybe God just gives us one
And you are my one true friend
You are my one true friend
I love you Joyce!!
