Post #3: Pod of Friends - What gets us through

Friendships

Throughout my journey, friends from both near and far reached out to offer their love, prayers, and support. It was overwhelming, yet it was also what helped me persevere. People often tell me how strong I am, and my response is always, “I couldn’t have done it without the love and support of my friends and family; THEY are the ones who made me strong.”

A Symbol of Friendship

This ornament held significant importance to me during my journey. I felt a deep need to express my gratitude to the close friends who were there for me at all times, who constantly checked in on me, and who prayed for me every day. I designed the dolphin ornament to symbolize the unconditional love and emotional bond I share with my dear friends. Just as dolphins travel in pods to protect themselves from predators, friendships also travel together to help us overcome challenges and lift us up during our triumphs.
