Friends. How many of us have them? Friends. Ones we can depend on…”

Admit it. We’ve all sung along to this classic joint from Whodini at some point in our lives. With a catchy hook and infectious beats, this song discussed an important aspect of everyone’s life…friends! Anyone who has broken down your wall of defense and had the honor of being labeled as a “friend” in your life, is a treasure to behold. I know the world is moving faster than the speed of light, but it’s time to truly start appreciating our relationships.

I have to slowly raise my hand and admit that I have dropped the friendship ball many times throughout my life. I know for many women on-the-go, it’s extremely easy to get caught up in your own day-to-day events and not truly give enough time and energy towards your loved ones. It’s unfortunate that some of us have to hit a difficult point in our lives to realize how blessed we are. Having people in our lives who hold us down and keep us sane is something we must not take for granted!

At the end of the day, it doesn’t matter how accomplished in life you are if you don’t have friends to celebrate your achievements with. Stop what you’re doing and pick up the phone. Dial up your closest friends. Tell them how much you love and appreciate them!

Miracles & Blessings,
