To My WLS Sisters......
Just a little something to say thank you.....
When I was little,
I used to believe in the concept of one best friend,
and then I started to become a woman.
And then I found out that if you allow your heart to open up,
God would show you the best in many friends.
One friend is needed when you're going through things with your man.
Another friend is needed when you're going through things with your mom.
Another when you want to shop, share, heal, hurt, joke, or just be.
One friend will say let's pray together,
another let's cry together,
another let's fight together,
another let's walk away together.
One friend will meet your spiritual need,
another your shoe fetish,
another your love for movies,
another will be with you in your season of confusion,
another will be your clarifier,
another the wind beneath your wings.
But whatever their assignment in your life,
on what ever the occasion,
on whatever the day,
or wherever you need them to meet you with their gym shoes on and hair pulled back,
or to hold you back from making a complete fool of yourself ...
those are your best friends.
It may all be wrapped up in one woman,
but for many it's wrapped up in several...
one from 7th grade,
one from high school,
several from the college years,
a couple from old jobs,
several from church,
on some days your mother,
on some days your neighbor,
on others your sisters,
and on some days your daughters,
or it could be nieces.
So whether they've been there 20 minutes or 20 years,
pass this on to the women that God has placed in your life to make a difference

This is so true.
A little more than two years ago I received an email from someone I had gone to high school with( a very small private school in Cambride, Ma)
we hadn't been in touch with anyone in almost 40 years, she was trying to organized a reunion luncheon. My first reaction was ... I haven't seen these people in almost four decades what do we have in common and do I really care to spend time with them.
Well lo and behold I did attend with about ten other "girls" needless to say we have grown to include about twenty "girls" and we have so much more in common than we did back then and we have all become such a wonderful support and sympathy group for all in the past two years spouses and parents have died, childred have run the gamut of joys and heartaches, grandchildred have been born again with all the joys and heartaches associated, illnesses both physical and mental have been endured, partners have come and gone and through all this there has been nothing negative just support.
Who would ever have expected this?
Every day I thank God for my friends both old and new some I know in person some only via a message board or email but all so supportavive I can only hope I have been a friend too.
My mom used to explain relationships using two side by side pyramids with heart above one of them and lines breaking the triangles into levels and then the levels have veritical lines making squares on each level.
Then she would say everyone you meet fits here. Some people you meet or family members may be at the upper levels and others like firemen you don't know personally or the trash man or the sales clerks.... the are the lower levels. They form the foundation of your life for without them you would be lacking things that you need to live the life you want and deserve. The top is for the number one person in your life. S/he is at the top because that is the closest person to your heart.
The other triangle is the same thing for someone else. You may have names in yur pyramids that are common buton different levels and you may have names that are on one pyramid and not the other. Ater all you don't know everyone.
And yes there are going to be bad and even some evil people and they are the dirt upon which the pyramids rise gloriously above.
Just thought it was a neat way to look at people. Hope you either like this or got a good laugh from it.
