There comes a time when you find a castle washed away right from under foot. Maybe it was expected, the tide came in and took away what was rightfully his. Maybe a flash flood came and took everyone by surprise. Maybe some angry little kid with a chip on his shoulder came and kicked it into the sea. Either way, these are the times when it is our responsibility to help remind a friend that she is still queen of her own castle...her new and better castle.
Times like these can be scary. They can be uncertain. Rest assured, they can be very lonely. It is up to the queens whose castles are on solid ground to mount up and help strengthen that of those whose foundations are a bit shaky. Whether it be bringing over groceries, calling to check in a little more frequently than usual, overlooking the mess, the stress and the minor breakdowns or just stopping by for a chat, remember that no woman is an island. We all need a bit of help and reassurance when life goes unexpectedly.
