Piglet sidled up to Pooh from behind. "Pooh!" he whispered.
"Yes, Piglet?"
"Nothing," said Piglet, taking Pooh's paw.
"I just wanted to make sure of you."
A. A. Milne
Two weeks ago I picked an amazing new friend up from her cottage just 40 minutes away.
The first time I heard her voice, I knew we were going to be friends.
When we made eye-contact, you could see the excitement in her beautiful face...she was trying so hard to keep it all in. I wished she let it out...it would have been such a celebration...of clapping and jumping up and down at the same moment...a moment of JOY!
But because of cautiousness she stepped back...and breathed...when I came around the car...we simultaneously hugged. I could feel the excitement in her embrace and when stepping back....stepped forward to hug again...her eyes were shining...she had the most beautiful smile...and I could see the little girl in her instantly.
All of you know the meeting of new friends...the instant connection...the smiles...
the wonder of it all.
Meeting my new friend for the first time was magical because...
*she is excited about life
*she listens
*she understands
*she drinks hot chocolate from a Winni-the-Pooh cup
*she know who she is
*she feels comfortable in her own skin
*she feels "home"
*she adores nature
*she shares her own stories
*she has a heart of gold
*she could just sit and marvel in the beauty
*she sat there, breathing in the sea
*she is like a little fairy in the woodlands
*she laughs easily
*when she was little she wanted to know how her veins work
*she is kind and soft hearted
*she is honest
*she is passionate
*she is my beautiful new friend
"brought joy like no one else"
