Today on the way home from church I drove past a woman selling roses at the side of the highway and I bought a yellow one. I love yellow roses; as they signify friendship and joy. I have been so thankful the past few months for my friends. While romantic red rose love can fade, the types of friendships I have with people are enduring. These are the type of people I can reach out to at midnight in the midst of a panic attack or at 6:30 in the morning when I'm struggling to get out of bed. The people who keep a steady stream of memes and videos in my social media so I don't think about my reality too much. To the people who are unapologetically on my side. They are helping to fill a dark season with light, laughter and joy.
They are all my yellow roses and I am so grateful for all of them.
