Time passes.
Life happens.

Distance separates.
Children grow up.
Jobs come and go.
Love waxes and wanes.
Men don't do what they're supposed to do.
Hearts break.
Parents die.
Colleagues forget favors.
Careers end.
 
BUT.........
 
Sisters are there, no matter how much time and

how many miles are between you.

A girl friend is never farther away
than needing her can reach.
 
When you have to walk that lonesome valley and

you have to walk it by yourself,

the women in your life
will be on the valley's rim,

cheering you on,
praying for you,

pulling for you,

intervening on your behalf,

and waiting with open arms at the valley's end.
 
Sometimes, they will even break the rules and

walk beside you...

Or come in and carry you out.
