I have these nine best friends. We work at being best friends. I was invited into this little group about 10 years ago but the rest of them have been together a lot longer.
We meet every Wednesday. Sometimes for hours. We don't gossip. No agenda really. We're just there for each other.
I've described us as a group of powerful women. Occasionally someone will say "Oh, you mean spiritually."
Well, yes.
But then one, or three or all of them will pull off something that has GLOBAL implications.
We're there for each other to celebrate and when trouble comes - but we're there for many, many other people as well.
I love all of them. I'm in awe of every one of them. I'm 1,500 miles away and I miss them.
