Mirrors

I'm going to hold a mirror up for Diva.

Diva, you are kind and generous to a fault.

You are a hella good cook and even better hostess.

You are a very talented writer (and this goes for Arwen too!).

I am in awe of your crafty skills (the kind with paper, stickers and scissors as well as the cerebral type).

Your home is one of the few places that I've felt completely at ease and at peace.

I am going to hold a mirror up for PinkieLee.

You are, without a doubt, one of my idols for many reasons. I'll list a few.

Your ability to make someone feel like they are the only person speaking in the room. You put your heart and soul into the art of listening.

Your ability to mock yourself gently and with flair. I'll always remember the Karate Princess pose in the doorway at Diva's.

Your ability to mix and mingle with EVERYONE. You are like this amazing ambassadress (is that a word? Someone get me the DictionaryFemme! ......oh wait...) of all good things in Southern women.

I greatly admire the woman you are and hope to know you better as time goes by.

i love this thread. thank you for starting it Gemme/Arwen and participating in it everyone. my positive mindset has been getting rusty.

i will hold up a mirror for a pal who, though hy will never wander in here, deserves all the praise for which i can devise words.

to my friend Converse ~

you are one of the kindest people i've ever had the pleasure of knowing, even though i dont have the privilege of knowing you well.

you have adjusted my attitude, listened to my hurts, gently slapped inappropriate thoughts out of my head, reminded me to ask for what i want, been compassionate when i couldn't stop whining, allowed me the dignity of my mistakes without derision, encouraged me to make a fool of myself when it mattered most, bolstered my courage, been a sounding board for my confusion and prevented me from committing the worst of unforgivable crimes: throwing away my unconditional faith in love.

if it's possible to cherish a friend i've never met, then i cherish you. i am thrilled beyond limit to know that karma found you and so you found love.
