girl talk

***

Oh, the comfort

~ the inexpressible comfort of feeling

safe with a person~
having neither to weigh thoughts

nor measure words,

but

pouring them all right out,

just as they are,

chaff & grain together;

certain that a faithful hand

will take & sift them,

keep what is worth keeping,

&

then with the breath of kindness,

blow the rest

away

my wish

is for you all have a sweet dear friend you can talk to

***

Thank you my sweet friends

your kind comments and lovely thoughts

always mean so so much to me

&

Thank you sweet followers

I so appreciate each one of you

Girl Talk

Once upon a time

the only way we could communicate with

our girlfriends

was by

telephone

as a teen
I would sit for hours in one spot
...no multi tasking could be done
because you couldn't go anywhere
....you were connected to the wall
...unless you were one of the lucky ones that had a phone
with a
mile long cord
{about the only thing you could do was paint your toes}


we would pour our hearts out to each other
talking about
our school day
boys
social events
big things and little things
and any another intimacies
that friends might share

"The best way to mend a broken heart
is time & girlfriends"

Girl Talk

I remember my ear being so sore
from holding the receiver to it
for hours upon hours
My dad repeatedly asking me to get off the phone...
wondering what was wrong with me ?
I had just spent a whole day at school with the same girl
who was on the other end of the receiver!
Parents never understood!

I would finally say goodbye
only to call her back again in an hour...
to start the girl talk all over again

Do you remember what it was like before
computers....texting.... twitter...etc?
When you just had to talk to your bestest buddy in the whole wide world!


I think that is why I love my blue phone so much
it reminds me of these girl talk times
plus the ring is so so amazingly cool!
