Girlfriends, True girlfriends

Girlfriends

True girlfriends

Are the best

They come

To share

To help

To lift up

Girlfriends

True ones

Fill us with

Inspiration

Aspiration

And faith

They laugh with us

Deep guttural laughs

That make our whole beings shake

And vibrate

At the same frequency

The frequency of pure abandon

Enabling us to let go

Surrender

In the comfort of the grasp of our girlfriends

True girlfriends

Giving each other permission

To not worry about 

What we look like

Or what we say

Dropping the guards

We put up

Stripping off the armour

We put on

Because there is no need

To hide behind the shield

No need to be other than who we are

Springing forth conversations

Without judgement

Without fear

Deep and open conversations

Exposing our vulnerabilities

Revealing them

Peeling them back

Allowing us to nurture them

Rather than using our vulnerabilities as weapons

Against us

Girlfriends

True girlfriends

Stand by us through thick and thin

Never using any of our vices

As their victories

To tread on us

To make them feel more superior

Girlfriends 

True girlfriends

Honour our feelings

Help to balance us

As we do them

Girlfriends

True girlfriends

Understand 

There is a time and place

For everything and everyone

That sometimes we will be

On the same page

And other times we will not

That sometimes we will be

Physically present in each other’s lives

And other times we will not

Girlfriends

True girlfriends

Know when the time is right

There will be no distance between us

That the mental connection always remains

Such that when we are meant to be together

Time stands still

Reconnecting us

As if we had been together all along

Because we have

Being in the presence of girlfriends

True girlfriends

Is one of the most liberating

And awakening experiences

Because being in their presence

Opens our eyes to who we are

As it opens their eyes to who they are

Reflections of each other

Shadows of each other

Mirrors to each other

Girlfriends

True girlfriends

Are like the most precious jewels

Never to be taken for granted

Always to be treasured

Grateful for

And loved

Girlfriends

True girlfriends

What a breath of fresh air

Love my girlfriends

My true girlfriends

So grateful for having you in my life

This blog is dedicated to you

My girlfriends

True girlfriends

You know who you are

Scattered near and far

Physically

But always

Always

Present in my heart

With gratitude and love

Honour and respect

Namaste
