Am I indispensible to someone? How do I save myself from my own mental smallness? How do I reach out of myself and develop a friendship that is there with a lantern of hope in hand? Friendship among women can be compared to the hearth. It should be cherished with a sense of gratitude and joy. It should be a place of warmth and contentment.
With each heartbeat, I regret the friendships I didn't value and cultivate. I hear whispers in my soul reminding me of things I didn't once know, that I now know...things I wish I had better understood as a younger woman. I can't change the past nor continue to emotionally beat myself black and blue over the lost friends. I shouldn't let this encumber my road ahead. I should develop a sense of grace within myself that will be the basis of the compassion I have for others.
Pursue it madly!
