Month of Friendship – Day 3 – Social Media ‘Friends’

September 3, 2010 – 12:49 pm

Friendship Social MediaWho’s your friend?

Is a Facebook friend really a ‘friend?’ Social media has changed the face of friendship by offering us hundreds to thousands to hundreds of thousands of connections with ‘friends’ 24/7/365 and anywhere we can take our phone or laptop. We can find a long lost friend, make new ones, see who is friends with whom and even ignore/block friends. We can find out about their lives, have conversations, ‘like’ them or hide their voice. Yes, social media has added a whole new language and way to speak it between ‘friends.’

We’re celebrating a Month of Friendship here on Girlfriendology (and with our sister-friend blogs in the Friendship Circle). As part of our challenge on this journey to Read More »

Hope, friendship and really good juice

January 30, 2010 – 5:32 pm

Disclaimer upfront – Girlfriendology is all about women supporting women – regardless of our differences, beliefs and convictions. I want all women to feel welcome here so I don’t discuss religion, politics or controversial issues typically. The following blog does note some of my personal beliefs and if you’re offended by that or not interested, feel free to visit other areas of Girlfriendology. I just feel the need to express the following and hope you’re open to sharing with me too.

Hope, friendship and really good juice

I couldn’t commit to a weekly gig, or even a monthly routine of volunteering but I felt the need to get involved in my community. Read More »

Daily Inspiration: Lessons from Wilma Rudolph

December 10, 2009 – 6:04 am

Daily Inspiration, Girlfriendology styleI love learning about great women. They inspire and challenge me. They make me try to be a better person.

What was just a short statement or thought, actually is a way to live in an attitude of gratitude. Share this moment with a friend and send this Daily Inspiration on to her. (And, if you don’t get this, subscribe to this Daily Inspiration through the orange tab to the left.)

Thankful for Girlfriends, Thanksgiving and a ‘tough year’

November 26, 2009 – 1:31 pm
Thanksgiving - thankful for girlfriends

Thanksgiving - thankful for girlfriends

A friend just found a job after looking for a year. When I congratulated him, he replied, “It’s been a tough year.”

It has been … for a lot of us. Some friends have dealt with health issues and job loss. A college girlfriend of mine is in hospice care which is surreal and very, very sad. Another dear friend just lost her husband. More than one friend is trying to figure out their place in the working world while another girlfriend struggles with being supportive for her husband who is unemployed. Our 401k’s have decreased and our stress increased. Aging parents, ill family members and uncertain futures have plagued so many of us and I’m sure you Read More »
