Over the past few weeks I have witnessed love being shared in the most amazing ways between some wonderful friends.

I attended the civil ceremony celebration of Gillian and Terri, the wedding of Jean and Wullie and this Thursday my great “bloke” mate Marina will have a civil ceremony with the lovely Lorraine.   

All of these are fantastic examples of love between two people and the happiness that they share with friends and family.

I am also very privileged to watch the story unfold of two wonderful friends who are nearing completion of adopting two children.  I will not name them for privacy reasons, but many of our shared friends will know who I mean.

The two friends in question are the most wonderful, open hearted, caring women you can ever hope to meet.   They are happy to dedicate their lives and sacrifice a lot for the love they have for others in need.   

I admire all my friends, I love so many people for their caring attitude, their honesty, their humour and their courage but these two friends have shown me that happiness is found by sharing and caring for others.

There are many people in life who are happy to take, to use, to see a benefit out of a friendship.  These people do not stay in your life.

The beautiful people do.

Thank you my beautiful friends.
