It was incredible, an affair that brought so many things full circle through God's faithfulness, grace and love.
One thing that I was starkly reminded of this weekend was the marvelousness and beauty of girlfriends. I got to stand by my sister on the day of her wedding, with 6 other women who have also walked with Megan and were willing to come from near and far to stand by her and affirm her commitment.
I see this vision of my dearest friends, the ones who journey together, as holding hands in front of a rolling sea.
our faces to the waves, hands clasped
ready to take on the life that ebbs and flows.
feet planted firm.
There is something sacred about the link of a girlfriend. There are countless times that I have met the friends of my friends and given them hugs in lieu of handshakes because I know that if they are friends of my friends, they must be friends of mine. The link becomes a chain all too easily.
And it's beautiful.
