Publisher's Synopsis
People so often say "Everything happens for a reason," and whilst there are usually trails of cause-and-effect, quite often the 'reason' which can be drawn from a situation depends on what you put into it. Occasionally, though, it's pure serendipity and life can spin on the dime of chance, altering its trajectory through happenstance. Both things were true for us - we 'met' online and somehow (perhaps it's a poet thing, or a writer thing, or just a people-who-are-right-for-each-other thing) we clicked, fell utterly in Friends, and have become keystones in each other's lives. We have both been blessed by the unconditional flow of adoration, compassion, encouragement, understanding, and acceptance that transcends the miles between us, and is strengthened each time we meet. This poem was written from our hearts, one to the other, in support, solidarity, and love, which remains bright and shining between us, even on our darkest days. If friendship is the pinnacle of love, then may we ever enjoy this apex. We believe the sentiments our poem definitely go further than the two of us. We hope you fill this journal with heartfelt words and then... give it to someone you love.
