To All My Friends!

One of my dearest friends sent this to me. I had to share it with all of you. I have been so blessed in my life to have the greatest friends. Neil is my soul mate so he said he would opt out of this segment.
You all know who you are, so this is for y'all!!! Please feel free to send this to your special friends.
True friends come at all times in our lives. I know that they are divinely placed in our lives when we need them. Sometimes they are hard to find.......but that "friendship light" will come when you need her or them. Leave yourself open to feel the sweet pockets of friendship. It may be someone you never thought possible.
Thank you to all of YOU that have woven your golden threads that run so deep into the tapestry of my life! My tapestry is full of beautiful colors!!! The Lord has truly blessed me!!!!! Thank You!!!

GIRLS IN MY CIRCLE

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 will sit beside you in the bleachers as you delight in your children and their activities.
Another when you want to shop, share, heal, hurt, joke, or just be.
One friend will say, '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 whatever 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,
On some days your mother,
On some days your neighbor,
On others, your sisters,
And on some days, your daughters.




So whether they've been a friend for 20 minutes or 20+ years,
AND ONLY IF YOU'D LIKE TO,
Pass this on to the women that God has placed in your life
To make a difference. Including the one who sent it to you.



I am glad you are in my circle of friends.
