Friends always bring joy...

I had a moment last week that I can't stop thinking about and wanted to put it out there. Do we surround ourselves with the people that feed our joy and our soul? I'm not sure the people that are attracted to us (and us to them) are always people who can feed our soul. Those that look at you with pride, joy and know what you have to give to the world (however big or small).

I had one of those moments when I wasn't feeling well last week. I have a friend who lives in Arizona and was planning to come in and have dinner with me. She had also called me about some business advice (which I gladly gave...). It was Wednesday afternoon (see previous post for "Not My Best Day" last Wednesday)...I had gone home not feeling great.

I had snuggled up with my laptop to concentrate and up pops an email from my sweet friend. Out of the blue (my blue at least :)) she wrote one of the most heartfelt, genuine and giving emails that I have had the pleasure of receiving. In this email, she told me what made me special and how I had contributed to her life (and happiness). While I had tears in my eyes, I realized that she had just fed my soul.....and more importantly, I realized that my soul must be "starving" lately.

So here I am with this realization, trying to process it and make it actionable for myself (cuz that is what women do)......because I have to always be conscious of what needs to be fed......my soul, my joy, my health and my relationships. Learning is sooooo important...........
