I know that we both hold our friendship as something sacred and precious and rare; something, as you said, that not everyone experiences in the course of a life. I consider myself to be profoundly blessed to have found it with so special a person as Christianne. <BR/><BR/>Christianne - Wow. Ah! When I think of our time together, so much rises in my heart and pops out in my mind. Every moment was so terribly special, each word and activity and conversation orchestrated by God Himself. I count it as such a privilege to be able to share these days and moments with you and Kirk. And the gators too. Watch out, guys. Christianne means business!! ;o)<BR/><BR/>Di - thank you for sharing with us in this way. It is amazing to have experienced it and I know it's something we both feel honor and privilege to have shared together. So beautiful.<BR/><BR/>Terri - Thank you for sharing. I do know what you mean about this sacred & special bond; and it is. That's not lost on us. I know for me, since our connection was reforged in the context of blogging and with the witness of our wonderful little blogging community, it is something I have a desire to share in this space. But as you said so well, so much of what we shared was sacred and special and holy, something I'll be treading around lightly, something which will never be explicity shared here. <BR/><BR/>Sometimes, there are no words. Sometimes those holy gifts are ones we're meant to ponder in our hearts and keep secret. For some of these things, these conversations, these tears ... this is true. <BR/><BR/>Thank you for thinking of us and praying for us this week. We felt enveloped in the prayers and love of our community and sent prayers up for you, too. <BR/><BR/>What are we to do with so much love?!kirstenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09789771023962578029noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1064478678164369045.post-83042813437860307242008-02-03T13:12:00.000-05:002008-02-03T13:12:00.000-05:00Thanks for the generous way the two of you have sh...Thanks for the generous way the two of you have shared this very intimate thing going on between you. You don't have to, you know. I feel a little bit like a voyeur peeking in on something really holy and in some ways deeply private. I hope you know that you have permission to keep any and all of this just between the two of you. <BR/><BR/>Having said that, it is a rare and joyful thing to witness that such connections are really possible, even across impossible distances and obstacles. This is what we were made for. Thank you Kirsten and Christianne for listening to the Spirit that called you back to one another. And thank you again for inviting us in.terrihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08284855262535595879noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1064478678164369045.post-5578148150572207152008-02-03T10:26:00.000-05:002008-02-03T10:26:00.000-05:00"we will allow our shared and individual experienc..."we will allow our shared and individual experiences from this week to sink into our bones and flesh"<BR/><BR/>I love how this connects and testifies of your two spirits being in the One and how that is permeating every fabric of your being....deep calls to deep ultimate beauty<BR/><BR/>thank you for these feelingsdihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07711461934901423087noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1064478678164369045.post-90304002488720390262008-02-03T09:08:00.000-05:002008-02-03T09:08:00.000-05:00Kirsten, even though neither of us has many words ...Kirsten, even though neither of us has many words for what this week has meant to us, you wrapped so much of this special week in perfect words here. I felt like I was re-experiencing so many of the special moments as I read this post, and your descriptions were so apt, so graceful, so just right. When I read about holding hands, I remembered how your hands felt inside of mine. When you wrote about the deep and hidden places the bubbled up without expectation, I remembered how it felt to be sitting at that table, tears coming to the surface, prayers beginning to flow. <BR/><BR/>And talking to alligators and our breakfasts? Yeah, that got a huge burst of laughter out of me. :)<BR/><BR/>Those alligators better back off. Or we'll eat them! Grrr . . . we're not scared of them, no, no.<BR/><BR/>Thank you for putting into such beautiful words the very first few layers of our time together. I will always, always treasure this week in my heart. And I will treasure you even closer still.christiannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06278757714101308785noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1064478678164369045.post-13181519260151624352008-02-03T08:54:00.000-05:002008-02-03T08:54:00.000-05:00Truly when one has a friend as you have in Christi...Truly when one has a friend as you have in Christiane you are blessed. Some people go through their entire life and do not have an intimate friendship such as you have. That is to bad. <BR/><BR/>God gives us great friends for great reasons. They are there to reflect back to us ourselves warts and all, and to reinforce all the good stuff that makes us who we are.jcubsdadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08441530898226119655noreply@blogger.com
