“There are women who make things better...simply by showing up. There are women who make things happen. There are women who make their way. There are women who make a difference. And women who make us smile. There are women of wit and wisdom who- through strength and courage- make it through. There are women who change the world everyday... Women like you.”

Friendship is about making the effort to show up in a relationship
Friendship is not about sending a representative
Friendship is doubling the joy of happy times
and diving the grief..it helps make life even better
Friendship is not about harping on the negative
or harboring resentments from the past
Friendship is not jealousy over another's successes
Friendship is help and succor and strength and support
Female friendships are living, breathing, viable things
they should be honored, cherished, and appreciated
because they manage to survive despite and because of...
women are strength and love. women are compassion and understanding. women hold each other up, support each other through hard times, laugh together at the ironies of life and cry when life disappoints them.
women endure childbirth, double standards, rape, abuse, mistreatment and never give up or give in. we are all queens and we protect our kings and our children. we look after and strive to save our earth and our environment. we are mother nature’s helpers and leaders of new beginnings and creators of new generations.
we give, create, connect, serve, lead, inspire, imagine, dream, believe, and hope. we never truly lose faith... and...we do it all with and through our friendships with one another.
i am proud to be a woman, to have women friendships, women family members, sisters and female mentors. we are women! we are succulent, wild, amazing, outrageous and fabulous! we are women making forward strides everyday. i honor us all!! women rock!!!!
