I& #39;ve mentioned this before but I want now to say it again. In spite of our differences (She spent decades in the Army, I was four years in the Navy. She is A Catholic Nun, I am a lifetime Protestant lay person to name a few) @sistervpaul_ and I have built a friendship on

mutual respect and admiration. This, despite the fact that I do not subscribe to all the teachings of her church, nor she mine. Also, she graciously overlooks my occasional lapse into cussing like an old sailor. But we are friends because we look to our commonalities. And those

are the things that we use as a foundation for our friendship. I am exceedingly happy and proud to call her my friend. And there is no one on Twitter, whose opinion and approval, I value more.

I& #39;m sure that her more than 25 thousand followers feel the same way as I do.
