Friends You Love...Month Long Blog Party!





"Tell me what company thou keepst, and I'll tell thee what thou art."
- Miguel de Cervantes (1547 - 1616) Spanish novelist


"A friend is a person with whom I may be sincere. Before him I may think aloud."
- Ralph Waldo Emerson


"One loyal friend is worth ten thousand relatives."
- Euripides, Greek playwrite


"The world would be so lonely, in sunny hours or gray. Without the gift of friendship, to help us every day."
- Hilda Brett Farr



There is a special bond between women that no man will ever understand. As much as we try to explain it, the words never come.


There is an honesty and realness between two women. It is a feeling to which there is no description, but it allows us the comfort to be who we really are.


We open up to one another. Talk about our fears, our dreams, our lives...


Friends are there for us--through life's ups and downs, the happiest days of our lives to the saddest days that we just need someone to let us cry on their shoulder--whether that's person to person, a phone call or even online.


Your friends may be ones that you've known for years. Or maybe you have never met them in real life, but rather have known them for years, months, days through your blog. I know that I have made so many of my friends online...and they? Are amazingness.


***What is This About?***


In 1999, Kappa Delta Sorority created National Women's Friendship Day and in 2009, the celebration was expanded to the entire month of September. In 2010 it is expanding to International Women's Friendship Month, the celebration offers all women the opportunity to honor their special friends. (source http://nwfd.kappadelta.org//)


***What Bloggers are Doing***


For the month of September a small group of women bloggers have come together to celebrate friendship. All month long we will be hosting events, contests, reviews, giveaways, and Twitter parties all in the name of friendship!


My blog will serve as our hub and link you to where you need to be in order to play along. In addition, you will find links and events on our individual sites leading you around Blognia in hopes that you too will celebrate the gift of friendship!


So go and check out Friends You Love and meet all of my other friends for this awesome month long party--it's going to be a blast!
