Tag Yourself: For My Girl Friends

January22
 

I know I should be posting out the tags that I receive as soon as possible, but that time when I was really getting that huge traffic from Entrecard, I keep on getting one tag and award after the next.

Now here’s the next one that Iceah gave me months back. A lovely poem for my girl friends. Read carefully, this is pretty much true with me.

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 will sit beside you in the bleachers as you delight in your children and their activities.
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.

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 who has a place in your life/lives…..

Now who to pass to …. hmmm… I decided not to tag blogger-friends today. If you like the poem then feel free to share this to others. If you had written this tag, please leave a comment below with a link back to your post so that I edit this post and add the link to your blog. Don’t forget to mention my blog together with the link. Only 5 slots to first five bloggers will be posted here.

And please check your gender, this tag is open for female bloggers. :-p (But if you’re a male and you insist.. that’s fine with me – I can still add your blog).
