For the love of Friends

I've gotten some pretty nice emails, comments, etc from so many kind people who carry my sadness of this past cycle in their hearts for me. But I did want to share a post from a great friend of mine, well she's really my sister from another mother (no joke). It just touched me so much I really felt the need to share.

She said.....

I saw this quote..."Perseverance allows you to get back on track when you hit a detour."

I think that perserverance is the ability to keep going even in the face of continuous challenges. You my friend are the epitome of perserverance especially in my eyes. Even when life throws you the biggest of curve balls, you have this innate ability to get back on track and stay focused.

You are truly amazing. Sure, you could have given up when obstacles faced you, or used failure as a reason to quit, but you never, ever have. I admire you so.

I am hoping and praying with all my heart and soul that the detours you have been forced to take WILL inevitably get you to your goal. I just have to believe that will happen and that the Lord will see it happen for you.

I know that like me, you will not be satisfied until you attain what you want. And that means that no matter how many people tell you you're foolish to even try, your inner strength will counteract their negativity.

You have a spark within you...a spark that will not allow you to give up, a spark that will keep you going and trying and achieving your dream. All the while, I am glad to say that I will be one of those people helping to keep that flame alive.

Take some time to sulk...you are grieving and you are entitled to do so. In the meantime, just know how much I (and we) all love you!


I hope you don't mind I made this a post, Tracey, my dearest friend. I felt the need in these trying times for me to uplift my presence that I seem to come across to people and believe I can be strong again and do this again!

I got my BFP this past cycle!!! WOW!!! It's a huge accomplishment for me.....whether it didn't work out.....it has to be a sign that my body is gearing up for a pregnancy. I have to feel that in my heart and soul. My body never showed me this before right? So why not take a negative and make it a positive right? So that's what I'm going to do. I'm not fooling myself though. This cycle will be a challenge emotionally, but I will place all my Faith and prayers to God and Hope he finally answers.

Love ya girl!

God Bless.

Mind??? Of course not. I am so touched by the fact that perhaps my thoughts and words and above all, my friendship can help you find some comfort during this very difficult road you are on.

I love you!
