Best Friends forever! by maggiemae

Best Friends forever!

Mr Man and Yolanda were reflecting on their relationship as they trundled through the countryside on his trusty bike! Firstly it was established they were best friends and perhaps there might be more in the future.
A lovely saying about a best friend is:

"Oh, the comfort, the inexpressible comfort of feeling safe with a person, having neither to weigh thoughts nor measure words, but pouring them all out, just as they are, chaff and grain together, certain that a faithful hand will take and sift them, keep what is worth keeping, and with a breath of kindness blow the rest away". ~Dinah Craik

To have a good friend you must be one yourself is what I say as well.

Three good things;
1. Grateful for the friends I have after 70 years!
2. Gave the truck a really good clean - called "executive valet"!
3. Learning about extra lighting while doing this shot.

First I read your saying twice over & really agree with those words completely ...such a luxury to be able to say exactly as you think & not have to measure your words.
So lovely to see Mr Man & Yolanda out & about in the sunshine......the best relationships start out as friends first.

Great to see them back and Yolanda is looking extra beautiful here. I love the quote by Dinah and must copy and save that one.....so true and so inspiring !!

Yolanda looks beautiful as ever.

Love your words. One of the things I love about good friends is when you get together after being apart for even years, it's like you just pick up where you left off. I LOVE IT.

Haven't seen Mr Man and Yolande for a while. Pleased to see they are still enjoying each other's company.

I have a notebook I write quotes in and that's one of my favourites too.
I like the way Yolanda is looking at Mr.Man, she is obviously interested in hearing his opinion and will value it.
January 9th, 2014  
Beautiful! Thanks for the commentary too :)
