I heard this quote through the grapevine awhile back and it stuck with me. It also struck something within me to evaluate the people that I spend the most time with. In no particular order, I thought about some really amazing friends I have in my life.
We shall call her Traveler. She is probably one of the most unique friends I have. Her style is all her own, she embraces her crazy curly hair and loves wine. She's backpacked through countries like Columbia by herself; there's nothing ordinary, boring, or average about her.
Next up, Sparkles. Sparkles is my wild card (and no not a stripper). At times she may be slightly fearful, but she's been on an amazing journey of being fearless. The three things that I love about her is her readiness to be silly,she's starting her own business and she's an encourager.
The Shit. This guy has everything. Good looks, dresses well, owns his own business, and started his own website that covers pop culture. What I love most about him is that he's a wealth of knowledge, he shares his knowledge, he asks why on everything, he'll call your bullshit and he has an amazing way of telling you to make things better.
Biznazz. This friend recently got a huge promotion that requires a lot more time and responsibility. I love the way she's embraced thankful thoughts for the promotion instead of dreading the time constraints. I also love how well-rounded she is about music, entertainment, cooking, arts and marketing. Even more incredible than all that, she loves self-improvement and Oprah as much as I do!
My Nugget. She loves to dance and we keep each other accountable with zumba class. She's a graphic designer and the stuff that she creates is awesome. I love her friendly disposition and patience on creating projects. Patience is a virtue and she definitely has that!
Friend bragging aside, I wonder if I encourage, lift up, stimulate, challenge and motivate my friends as much as they do me.
