December 21st is the day with the fewest hours of daylight - in other words, 'the darkest day'. I've long made this an opportunity to reach out to friends and colleagues whom I feel could use a boost, particularly if they're facing hard times around the holidays. It's easy to couch that outreach in terms of a brief "merry Christmas" or "let's get together in the new year" message, a shout out for our friends, the families we choose, instead of the families we have.
The question I continue to have every time I have seen this clip over the years is why do our family members, friends or ourselves have to be in distress or crisis mode in order for us to put the time aside to want to be there or spend time with them when they ask? 💛 A great reflection question for all of us is why does a text saying do want to come over as opposed to I need you to come over because I’m in a bad spot make you feel the need to choose to say yes to one text and no to the other?✨ If we have time in one situation why do we not have it in the other?✨ Reciprocal friendship is a beautiful blessing in which we are givien the opportunity to deepen our connection and trust in ourselves and one another when we continue to show up for each other in the good times and bad.💛
OR….hear me out….stating the obvious….answer her texts regardless if you think they’re important or not. You are not a friend by making HER qualify her messages. It’s very self-centered.
Man Woman friendship doesn’t exist. Let’s be honest please… Man who accepts their wife to go to other man house for “talking” or “dining” ahaha yeah ok 👍

A real power of listening.
A fiend is not your friend, so no fixing is required. ❤
So true

A great reflection question for all of us is why does a text saying do want to come over as opposed to I need you to come over because I’m in a bad spot make you feel the need to choose to say yes to one text and no to the other?✨ If we have time in one situation why do we not have it in the other?✨
