Friendship is a great gift not to be taken for granted. In order to have a friend one must be a friend. The capacity of a woman’s heart for meaningful relationships is vast. A woman must have women friends who walk with you into your own wound and help you heal… To give you eyes. So many women Say: ” I don’t have any girlfriends, girl’s don’t like me. I can’t trust women. All my friends are guys.” If you as woman don’t tune into your own pure heart and live your truth .You’re right … you will build walls so high around you, you won’t even be able to climb them yourself.
In order to love and appreciate other women as friends, you must be a friend to yourself. Genuinely love yourself. When god gives you a friend, he is entrusting you with the care of another’s heart. To fuel their inner passion with a purpose. To assist that person is becoming what he/she was meant to BE… To come alive! It is an opportunity to “mother” their heart. Mothers urge daughters to strive to be more than they were ever enabled to BE. Sisters hold each other up when everything else in the world conspires to hold them down. Women carry other women friends through the jagged road that is life… so many detours… so many choices… until a Woman is strong enough to make the journey on her own & reflect back the underlying blessing that is eventually unveiled. Clarity and friendships need to be protected, guarded & fought for…
Do you really “see” each other?
Do you “accept” every part of your “friend.” Do you ask how they are doing & stand still… Listen & Hear? Are you devoted to becoming a better person & friend? Honest communication in love & friendship is the only way to give & grow friendship… Nurture it. Sustain it. Give birth to spark that will ignite their full potential. Disappointments will always occur. We are human. Friendship binds past & present & makes bearable the future. Once a woman honors herself, female friendships flow. You will yearn to unite & help other women. I can tell you this, a great deal of my wisdom has been revealed to me through my friendships with women. I am so very grateful for their purity, humility, courage, strength and love. Friendship is the ultimate quest for human understanding. Only friendship will save us from our own smallness.
Friendship is more than an element of social life, it is a spiritual force that touches the soul. Community and human relationships are the foundation of growth of life. Friendship in its truest, purest form is love. Until you release yourself, your pure heart… You will miss the essence of being a woman. Tender yet strong. Strong enough to share your gift, your energy with other women so they too could delight in the bliss that is oneness. Namaste. The right friendship, rightly given, has the power to change the world.
peace & light
