Watching Friends Grow

Day 265: This has been an interesting week for friend's as some Ive not heard from in years have resurfaced. Even some that are right here in Atlanta with me but for various reason our paths don't allow us to see each other often.

My friend Carl came in from New York this week and we became business partners and spent hours today mapping our strategy. As we were working our mutual friend Dedie called from Paris to assure I was still coming to Guadalupe in August.

This week four of my college classmates whom I hung around with in college all resurfaced on Facebook and we're having a Rita and her four boys reunion next week. Linda is the first friend I made freshman year in college and she's been in my life over 30 years. She called and I was blessed by the peaceful place she now finds herself.

It was very cool to see my daughter attend an Events and Wedding Planner Conference today that my friend Robin Ware's agency put on. Robin use to babysit my daughter and now she's teaching her how to do something that she loves.

Gerald, his cousin Darrel ( who's deceased) and me use to golf and hang out during my Publix days. He came back into my life two weeks ago and on Friday we closed an incredible business deal that allows us to team up for the next three months. And to top off an amazing friend's week my sister friend Harriett is here from Maryland with her husband AJ getting their house in order and ready for them to move back to Georgia. How wonderful and happy we both are to be back in the same city with each other. She is my iron sharpens iron friend and I can't wait for our late night latte's and to plan our next international trip.

God is so very faithful and I'm continually amazed by his grace and mercy towards me. It fells like many things in my life are coming full circle. I believe that I'm about to hit my stride where in His word He declares, " you latter days will be better than your former days."
