Between Friends: What is God?

Two woman, Anita Holzberg and Ann Wainwright met over the internet with Bill Costley,

their common friend, whose wife Carolin had been Ann's good friend. Starting in

June '09, Anita sent a Cupcake poem to Ann's website cakecakecake, after seeing

the photo of cupcakes. The poem was about her grandson's first birthday party. Ann

liked that and it was the start of a wonderful exchange of poems from Anita to Ann and

Ann with color, photos, and lay-out savvy, presented them to the blog. Now, in 2010,

the two women so alike in spirit and interests, have started BetweenFriends, a new blog

site where they can combine ideas about their worlds. Ann lives in Northern UK

(Teesside). Anita lives in Northern California, Sunnyvale, (Silicon Valley where all the

computers are.) We share our lives on this blog and hope you will comment and share

yours too, dear readers and enjoy the "ride".

I was having my BLT Sandwich

between the crunch

my good friend Karen

described to me why Jesus died

and how he had the greatest gift of fore giveness

"God is love she said. It is everywhere,

mts., valley, streams, in the eyes of friends and family

we can see love and feel love.

We had been to this restaurant and had lunch so many times

It was our hang out

The intensity in how she spoke

Her whole face lit up like Christmas

Such a loving good person, my friend

She spoke totally from the heart.

When we left...I could not top this

No amount of shopping could ever compare

to that sense of spirituality and total faith!

I drove home slowly

It was 88 degrees

The summer heat on my back and shoulders

The gift of faith as sung by my friend

stayed with me....it will always will.
