Wonder Woman is best known for her force,
strength and power. I love to give the nickname
of Wonder Woman to those who I believe
to be extraordinary women who make a difference in the lives of others by just
going about their daily routine. I have
a friend, “Diana” (WW’s name), who has done just that for her entire life.
We first met when we were five years old. We immediately fell in love with each other. Our mothers became best of friends, too! We took ballet together, then Girl Scouts, then a gazillion other things that girls love to do. We both had two brothers who teased the heck out of us! As we became teens we began to follow different paths, but the bond was still there...and still is. Fate brought us back together when we discovered (from our moms) that we were both expecting our first child about the same time! Although we lived an hour apart, we made it a point to meet as often as possible.
A few years ago, Diana became ill with Cancer, She responded in true Wonder Woman form by fighting with all the force, strength and power she had locked away inside. She beat it; and then it reared its ugly head! She beat it again, and again, but it returned. In her perfect Wonder Woman way, she continues to fight and will do so until her very last breath!
I am so very fortunate to be one of many who Diana has touched over the years. Her love, attention and incredible gift of herself will stay in my heart forever!
God Speed my dear, sweet friend...
