A woman HAS to have close, meaningful girlfriends. It’s not a preference, it’s a need (if any woman tells you otherwise, I believe that she is not being truly honest with herself and is probably experiencing a loneliness deep down inside.) Yes, we love our men dearly, but there is a need within us that can only be filled by our girlfriends.
There are certain topics that can only be shared and discussed with our girlfriends; there are emotions, ideas, feelings, concepts that only our girlfriends can understand; there are times of joy and happiness that only our girlfriends can relate to. Girlfriends are our support system, our divining rods, our fashion consultants, and advice givers. At the same time we can be as silly, outgoing, and/or adventurous as we want (think about being in the car, turning up the radio, and uninhibitedly singing loud and proud!)
I have been blessed with two fabulous friends that I met at my place of work. We laugh together, cry together, complain together, analyze together, and laugh some more together! I don’t think these two wonderful ladies realize what an impact they have had on my life.
When I first started at ARCADIS, Teri was a wealth of information! I’m sure she got so tired of all my questions! If she did, she never gave any indication. Teri is one of those friends that are a rare find. She is full of wisdom and never hesitates to give me her honest feedback. I know that when I really need a straight-forward answer (even if I don’t like it), she will give it to me. At the same time, she is compassionate, sincere, and always available to wipe away my tears and get me back on my feet again.
Shari is so bubbly, full of life, and bursting with energy. She keeps me so motivated. I love Shari’s passion for life. She has the ability to connect with me on a deep level, which I really appreciate because it is another rare find. She is right there along-side me sharing my pain, happiness, excitement, confusion, joy, etc. Her heart seems to connect to mine and experience what I am experiencing.
Both of these incredible ladies make me laugh…laugh in ways that I haven’t laughed in years! They are right there encouraging me or discipling me (believe me…there are times when I need it!) They share my life and understand it with me. I truly cannot imagine the past year without them! We seem to be connected in a way that we can truly be ourselves and not have to worry about being accepted by the others! We are the Three Musketeers…ready to take on whatever is thrown our way.
