Happy birthday to my darling friend Carolyne.
You & I have been friends a very long time. Since middle school we have waxed & waned in our lives.
No matter the time or distance, we can always pick up where we left off.
My wish for your birthday:
That you trust yourself in your decisions. That you treat yourself with the same kindness that you treat your friends & loved ones. That you be patient to enjoy the gifts in your life (there are many!).
Celebrate, enjoy & relax when you can. Stress is good in short bursts to help you get things done but stress isn’t a place to live.
I love you. Be safe in the Phillipines & come home soon. We’ll be waiting to see you & to celebrate how much you’ve grown.
