Pattee and I were talking about some stuff with my writing today. She and I talk about my writing a lot; I probably talk to her about it more than anyone else. We talk about where it's going, what the desired outcome is, and she is really good at helping me sort out titles. She is very much a vital inside part to this whole thing. Today she was giving me a bit of a pep talk and she nailed it right on the head.
Pattee reminded me this was my dream and to be confident in it. She also reminded me to guard it, protect it, and cast out vision when it is needed. It was a good word. It built confidence into me immediately.
It's important who does the ins and outs of your life with you. It's important to have friends who know some of your dreams a bit better than you do. My friend Moonie told me today it's not about where you do life it's about who you do it with.
I have the friends I do because I'm blessed, but also because we are always trusting each other to go deeper. Pattee and I fight for our communication. It's like any relationship but she's who I live with, she sees it all and she also knows when to remind me of who I am. It's good to let someone know you that well. Yeah it's a lot of work sometimes but at the end of the day I love knowing I have someone running along the side of my lane waving pom-poms and cheering me on as I go.
I have lots of friends who decorate the tapestry of my life and I'm thankful. Sow deeply into your friendships. Use wisdom, ask them how to love them the way they will receive it, listen, and watch your life enrich. I encourage you to shoot a text to someone and let them know you appreciate their friendship. It'll bless you both, I'm sure of it.
