...and another existential crisis later...

You ever have one of those friends that makes you believe that wearing a sequined jacket to an 10:30am brunch is absolutely acceptable but only if you have on matching eyeshadow? How about that one friend that is a perfect 10 in every way imaginable to the point you hesitate being seen with her in public, but she is so genuinely beautiful on the inside that she reminds you that you are just as gorgeous? What about that friend who's altruism knows no bounds and seeps into your pores, making you want to be just as giving? I have those friends. Im a lucky girl. Even luckier when I think about the others who make up my small group of some kindas... to borrow from Dwele. These women are so awesome in so many ways that they make me want to tap into my some kinda, creative beautiful giving self. She's in there because we attract what we are right? In the push and pull of the day to day when I am pretending to be something I am clearly not, I tend to forget who I truly am. And just when I think Im totally lost, one of my awesome girls will send me text, a tweet, or a comment and remind me of just how awesome I am without even trying. They pull me back from the brink and remind me of just who God made me to be, and if you have been reading me for a while or know me then you know I am always on the brink and always suffering from an existential crisis of some sort- usually asking that ever ubiquitous query "what am I supposed to be doing with my life again?" Im supposed to be living it- thats what- exhibiting those God-given traits and qualities that my friends amplify. Can I just say that I love my friends...

why the hell not?! I LOVE MY FRIENDS!

Chucking the deuces to Frou Frou "Breath In".... no exhale. Feels pretty good.
