BWP for LIFE

Probably inspired by our anniversary...Macel shared to us this poem (i think this has a personal touch...Ü)...

Girlfriends for Life

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 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,
seven from high school,
several from the college years,
a couple from old jobs,
on some days your mother,
on some days your neighbour,
on others, your sisters,
and on some days, your daughters.

So whether they've been there 10 minutes or 10 years,
ONLY IF YOU WISH, pass this on to the women that God

has placed in your life to make a difference.
