I was very moved by your post about you and your friends. I am so glad that you have such a strong group of women around you! What a contrast to also speak about the television show as well. <br />I am glad to hear you have only experienced kindness here in Bloglandia. Me too.

There is nothing more pleasurable in my opinion than a diverse group of women getting together and sharing stories, love, support and experience. The laughter of women through adversity is wonderful.

I am also glad that I do not have cable TV and this limits my exposure to these shows because they can draw you in and that negative vibe they are sending out many times evokes negativity on our own situations. It sounds like you have an amazing group of friends that would go out of their way for one another because in the middle of all they are going through you all still found time to be together as supports not for your own pitty parties. I will be following your blog keep that positivity up because it sounds like each of you needs the support of the group.
