Becoming my own best friend

I'm reading Eat, Pray, Love at the moment. There are many many moments where I feel like I could have written the words, she has described an experience or feeling so aptly that I recognise it as my own.

There is one description in the book where she talks about seeing her reflection, and before realising it was HER reflection, she thought is was someone she knew...

well it got me thinking. I am for the most past a very good friend. I support my friends, listen to them, help them out - put myself out there for them. Yet I don't do those things for myself.

I recently brought myself an "I love you" present of a stirling silver ring with my birthstone garnet on it... a symbol that I love me. So continuing on from that I would like to introduce you to me - my new best friend.

  1. I'm not sure when I became my own best friend... I have known for I long time that that was what I needed to do but there is a big gap between knowing something and living it.. This was my epipthany that united by heart and soul and became my reality this year. I'm not sure how long ago but I started to live again that day, my writers block disappeared and once again I was happy. I haven't looked back since.yep..I have stumbled and dropped my bundle but in no time at all I picked it back up and got on with it. My life just keeps getting better. May it be the same for you x0x
