Eight friends from college

I have eight friends from college that I have kept up with for the past ten years. These are the guys that meant the most to me during my years at ACU. I talked to one of them tonight for about an hour. Ever since we graduated, we have called each other on the other's birthday. I'm serious when I tell you that I don't think we have missed a year since we graduated. How cool is that! Well, my friend is now a surgeon in Waxahachie. Yes, he actually gets to cut on people all by himself. He was always smarter than me in school, but tonight I kept thinking about the fact that he was finally done with his medical training and practicing on his own. That's crazy. That got me to thinking about my other seven friends and what their professions are:

1. youth minister
2. architect/professor
3. ER doctor
4. coach
5. youth minister
6. family minister/doc student in psychology
7. youth minister

Not bad for a bunch of guys from ACU. I'm so proud of all of them, and I can't tell you what each one of their friendships means to me. I am so grateful that I can call them up at anytime and catch up on their lives.

My friends make me happy.

Thanks for reading.

I think that is so impressive that all of you have stayed so close. I hate to stereotype too much, but guys aren't alwasy the best at keeping up with each other. Your friendships are a gift that will continue to bless you for years to come.

It was cold here the other night and I did not have any thing to start a fire with except this wedge of wood. Can I get another one, por favor.
