Summer Cleaning This House And Waiting


I have one more room to clean in this house. Then my summer cleaning is over with. I painted a room. now all I have to do is wait for me best friend from high school to come over and visit. We have been friends ever since I was a junior in high school. I was the best Man at his wedding. He went to school to become a missionary. He left to go to Africa with his wife and 3 kids.
Last year he came back. Moved one hour from Abilene. Now he is coming for a visit. he movie.. "Beaches" is Kevin and I. My being Hilary. (go figure. I was always the level headed one). Now we get to visit for 2 days before he has to go back and preach in his church. That will be next Thursday and Friday. Knowing someone that long and remaining strong friends is a wonder. I feel blessed by him. He has giving me a heart full of love and friendship that goes beyond friendship.

So does the "friendship that goes beyond friendship" part mean that you two have played around in the past? Or is this purely a platonic relationship?
