What do women do when they get together? Why must they go to the bathroom in pairs?
Why will you find them eying each other across a room?
Women have a secret language.
Even if our language is an MSU tour! |
Besides that, I think of J with her great wit and honesty, E with her exuberance, S with her long term commitment to my insanity, and my sister who understands the quirks of this life and chooses to embrace me anyway. And all the other amazing women that I cannot all name, because there are not enough words to express how awesome you all are. I have also been blessed with many mothers, my birth mother who is creative and loving, and many whom "claim" me as their own and have been supportive beyond measure.
Yup, this is my picture and that's me and my sister. |
Ever gotten the mom glare or teacher stare? A language all its own trying to restore balance. Googoo eyes? Glitter stare (oooh look something shiny!)? Women and how they interact with everything. When we are in groups, this is amplified (and can be sometimes overwhelming for us introverts!). Maybe that's why certain girls (myself included) who tend to have more friends who are male. Men have totally different ways they approach the world sometimes. These ways are not any less and are just as valid, but are definitely different from women's.
Spring makes me think of my girlfriends. |
So all of this to say, Thank you.
To all the women in my life.
When can we hang out again?
I miss our secret language.
