A very special thanksgiving

Thirty years ago tonight, shortly after midnight, I met someone who turned out to be my very best friend. I will be joining him at a party tonight in about one hour.

I just want to say a special thanks to God. I am very blessed.

Yes, you are.

As we are, to know you.

It is so neat to have a friend for 30 years.

That's a really sweet picture, too. There's a lot of love in it.

I didn't notice it right off because the overlay darkens the image, and because I was so taken by your words.

Happy New Year, friend and brother.

K, thanks.
D, yes. 30 years ago he didn't give me his phone number. Tonight he did. LOL

What a lovely post! To have a friend for 30 years is a treasure. I feel that way about my husband, although for about 24 of them we were apart!

Happy 2008 to you!

How grateful I am to make your acquaintance through this crazy blogoverse!

Peace and good things, blessings in abundance!

Paul, you are blessed. My best friends are my oldest friends. Except for y'all, of course.
