Reconnected (...and it feels so good)

I've recently reconnected with a precious soul who was so close to me at one time she was in our small wedding.  How we lost touch I'm not even sure.  I've mentioned before how I never transitioned well from one season to another until recently and I think, sadly, she was one of the casualties of my ignorance.  By grace she has let me into her life again and the relationship is such a treasure to me. 

I'm not sure if she'll ever realize what she contributes to my life.  I get to be myself with her and lose all of the titles.  I'm not a wife, mom, PTA volunteer or Awana volunteer with her.  She lets me just be myself and we talk.  Sometimes about the deep things of relationships and other times the drama a workplace can bring. I'm so thankful for the forgiveness and grace that has been poured out on this relationship. I'm pretty sure that any relationship where God is allowed to be glorified is one that will stand the test of time.
