What would you pick as your word for the week?

Friendship!  I've been one of those folks that join social networks, like gaia, facebook. etc. but paticipate only as an observer, reading everyone's blogs, profiles, etc. I'd see everyone's long list of "friends" and say to myself, "wow, wish I had that many friends".  Well, the perverbial lightbulb finally went off this week.  The voice in my head shouted "when will you wake up, share your voice and stop sitting on the fence! " So this week I began adding some special friends, communicating with folks on these sites, and posting blogs.  What a feeling!  I've been getting such a rush from the incredible people I've become friends with online.  The diversity of people and stories is an eye opener and has given me such a new perspective on life.  So I realize now that its the friendships in our lives that nuture our souls and our minds.  Being a friend to others, you become a better friend to yourself!!  Bless my friends ... they are the wind beneath my wings!!
