Friendship

John over at The Healing Seed is hosting the Weekword this week, and it is friendship. Great word, John!!
I have a new app for my iPad and I don't really know how to use it yet. This little illo is designed with iDraw, my first real attempt to use the program I just got last night. It's an illo for friendship.
Friendship is a special kind of love, perhaps one of the most important things in the world. I can't think of much more important than friendship! And I have to say, I have some really wonderful internet friends I have never met in the flesh. And a number of truly dear sweet friends I do see in the flesh!  May you have a few true friends!! One of the things I truly need is to make friends with myself at a very deep level. I want to treat myself with the same kindness, love, respect and charity I want to treat other friends. I want to treat myself as kindly as I wish other people would treat me, and with as much patience and forgiveness.
