Girlfriends are an "Essential" part of my life. To correct myself, friendship is an essential part of life. But, there is something about women and their friendships. I LOVE LOVE LOVE Nichole Johnson's brief take on the subject. Watch it for yourself.

September 2011 Anaheim, CA
After settling into life in California, I remembered literally praying for friends. I was REALLY specific, how many, the kind of personalities, life stages, common interest, etc etc. (Luckily God didn't listen to me)
(Hey, money making light-bulb moment - need to talk to nerdy + techie hubby - thinking "Match for Friendship Only"...$19.99 a month...if you call within the next 30 seconds, 2 friends for the price of 1)
I've learned a lot since then about choosing friends and the values of healthy friendships. I've also gotten my prayer answered.
My friends are from all walks of life, all ages, they are both near and far, with different interests, different takes on life, yet each of them helps complete me. I can laugh with them, cry with them, whine and wine with them. My circle surrounds me with love, kindness, acceptance and accountability.
They can follow today's blog entry without any issues. (Sorry Fellas, if you find this entry tangential, then you are right on tract) They can walk with me in life's ups and downs and continue to cheer me on.
I Thank God for Putting You in My Life
