Actually, I get by with A LOT of help from my friends and today’s MOMtra is dedicated to them. My beloved girlfriends, they all know who they are, literally save me sometimes. Batman and Spiderman are pretty cool dudes, but they got nuthin’ on my girlfriends. They are my superheroes…often coming to my rescue just in the nick of time! They save me from sinking, from stressing…save me from my crazy self!
As I get older and life gets more complicated, I have come to rely on these beautiful women in my life and treasure their support, generosity and kind, open hearts. Always there to lend me an ear, just like the song says. I am so grateful to have an incredible circle of friends around me who keep me centered and anchored when I need them. They share my ups, my downs, my ridiculous, my neurotic, my joy, my sadness, my insanity…they share me. All of me. Accepting me unconditionally, flaws and all, my friends love me. It is a priceless thing in this world to be loved just for being who you are. And I feel the same toward them.
These fabulous women lift me up, brighten my day, make me smile and often crack me up with their hilariousness. We are pals for life and I wouldn’t trade any of them for anything in the world. I tell them often how much I love them…actually it’s one of my favorite things about us. We always end our conversations like that. It’s important to tell the people in your life how much they mean to you. If you haven’t done it today, Poopies, tell your besties you love them. You will never regret it and it will always feel good.
So today’s MOMtra is for you…my girls, my ladies, my pals and even sometimes my partners in crime…I thank you with all my heart for helping me get by! Instead of a mantra to repeat, click on the link below and let the enduring and one-of-a-kind Mr. Joe Cocker belt out one of my favorite renditions of all time. This one is just for you!
