Blessings Friday: Gifts of Friendship

A lot is going on in my life right now making me especially mindful of my friends here in Tucson. Each one is an amazing person and I’m honored by their friendship with me.

On my birthday in May, I received a beautiful set of hand-turned pens from my friend Dee and her husband Larry.

Because my planner/organizer is red, Dee and Larry made sure I had one to match it. The second pen’s watery-blue and aqua colors was made to acknowledge my inner-mermaid self.

Although I’m grateful for gifts received such as this gorgeous pen set, it’s the intrinsic value of friendship that is my true gift.

Those are the mostly lovely pens I've ever seen. Sweet friendships make the world go round.
