If by any chance you meet a friend in the desert...
hold that friendship sacred.
For it is a rare and wonderful thing to spy a creature such as yourself
in that space...
a rare and wonderful thing indeed.
And as you grow in that friendship and love, you will become like a
magnet for others ready to connect with you in their own unique way.
And if you respect each new connection as the first, there will continue to be
Joy in the sight of each other...
as if you were seeing for the first time.
Comfort in each otherís company...
like family.
And within that bond there will be
Growth and strength
Support and forgiveness
Laughter and affection
Kindness and generosity
And it will all seem so familiar...
and new at the same time.
