A girlfriend is never farther away than needing her can reach.
When you have to walk that lonesome valley and you have to walk it by yourself,
When you have to walk that lonesome valley and you have to walk it by yourself,
the women in your life will be on the valley's rim.
cheering you on,
praying for you,
cheering you on,
praying for you,
pulling for you on your behalf,
and waiting with open arms at the valley's end.
Sometimes, they will even break the rules and walk beside you,
and waiting with open arms at the valley's end.
Sometimes, they will even break the rules and walk beside you,
Or come in and carry you out.
updated: after posting this i went to a sister friend's blog who is obviously hurting. so i made this for her. my hand is out hay and i am reaching in to pull you out.

i am lucky to have a sister. but all women can be sisters. my sister and i blog together to stay together. we live far apart and it is so hard to be a part of each other's lives, our blog is keeping us close.
I love this line, "they will even break the rules..and carry you out".
Beautiful.
Thank you for posting this today.
Hugs,
a.
yes a i think it speaks to the soul. we ALL can use this every now and then.
I cried and cried. Love you guys.
