Friends are cool.

I get by with a little help from my friends.
John Lennon

Friends are like a good, warm cup of coffee on a chilly day. Friends define a place. My favorite spots in this world are defined as such because of the memories I made with my beloved friends. They are what makes life worth living, mostly.

They also come and go like the changing of seasons. The flowers grow (and in Oklahoma quickly die as Summer and heat approaches), and the leaves change colors. My passion is to completely enjoy those times, to be whole heartedly there.

Donald Miller puts it best, " My hope is your story will be about changing, about getting something beautiful born inside of you, about learning to love a woman or a man, about learning to love a child, about moving yourself around water, around mountains, around friends, about learning to love others more than we love ourselves, about learning oneness as a way of understanding God. We get one story, you and I, and one story alone."
