Forsaking all others

From time to time, I am overwhelmed by a hurtful realization that people will let you down. It happens on those days when you give your best fruit and it's laid aside on a neglected plate, when you extend your hand to shake and it's met with empty air, when you search for a friend to walk with and find none ...

Well, one. At these times, I have always found one friend. One who is truer than anything I've ever known to be true. One who showed me how really precious the name "friend" is. My best friend: my husband.

Sometimes I understand what Thelma wanted when she told Louise, "Let's just keep going." I will never let anybody catch us.

Beautiful, April. When you no longer fear being left behind, you've found the one.

I'm sorry to let you down, but I'm very happy you've found Conrad.
