Women in My Life

People come into your live and leave a mark, open your eyes, open your heart or teach you a thing or two and of all the people who has been there girlfriends are the best I mean what would you do without them? Who else can unsnap your brassiere in school and get away with it? (that was the first thing that came to mind seeing it was a norm and it was on ok since I attended an all girls school ;)) .. Anyways..Who else supports you at detention or gets into trouble with you? Who is there by you when you cry. I have had girlfriends who have come and gone in my life and I do miss some of them. Sometimes situations distances the bond only time can bridge it back again or even an incident whatever it is I miss my best friend …



This piece below has probably been passed around a million times all over the internet. A piece about the friends who come into different stages of your life and tells us all a little story about all the women in our lives , who no matter how small makes a big difference in our lives and are always there for us, understands not judging just being a significant part of our well being .. And outside of a boyfriend, we all need our girlfriends and the women in our lives … enjoy this all …


Women in My 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,

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 your 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
