This is to all my REAL friends. Y'all know who you are.

IF ONE DAY...

If one day you feel like crying...
Call me.
I don't promise that I will make you laugh,
But I can cry with you.

If one day you want to run away...
Don't be afraid to call me.
I don't promise to ask you to stop...
But I can run with you.

If one day you don't want to listen to anyone...
Call me.
I promise to be there for you.
And I promise to be very quiet.

But if one day you call...
And there is no answer.
Come fast to see me...
Maybe I need you.

one old love she can imagine going back to... 

and one who reminds her how far she has come... 

enough money within her control to move out and rent a place of her own even if she never wants to or needs to... 

something perfect to wear if the employer or date of her dreams wants to see her in an hour... 

a youth she's content to leave behind... 

a past juicy enough that she's looking forward to retelling it in her old age... 

a set of screwdrivers, a cordless drill, and a black lace bra...

one friend who always makes her laugh... and one who lets her cry... 

a good piece of furniture not previously owned by anyone else in her family... 

eight matching plates, wine glasses with stems, and a recipe for a meal that will make all her guests feel honored.. 

a feeling of control over her destiny... 

SECRETS TO A HAPPY RELATIONSHIP ;)

1. It is important to find a man who works around the
house, cooks and cleans, and helps care for the kids,
and who makes money.

2. It is important to find a man who loves to spend
money on you, and show you a good time.

3. It is important to find a man who's good in bed and
who loves to have sex with you.

4. It is important that these three men never meet!

EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW 

how to fall in love without losing herself... 

how to quit a job, breakup with a lover, and confront a friend without ruining the friendship... 

when to try harder... and when to give it up and walk away... 

that she can't change the length of her calves, the width of her hips, or the nature of her parents... 

that her childhood may not have been perfect...but its over... 

what she would and wouldn't do for love or more... 

how to live alone... even if she doesn't like it... 

whom she can trust, whom she can't, and why she shouldn't take it personally... 

where to go... be it to her best friend's kitchen table or a charming inn in the woods when her soul needs soothing...
