We both learned how to be a friend by watching the women who came before us. Women who taught us that it's okay to show someone who you really are-that when you stop hiding behind a mask of perfection and protection, you unlock something beautiful.. Our girlfriends weave a luminous thread from the women we are to the women we hope to become, We may never find perfection, but we'll never be alone. Melanie Shankle
About This Quote

Women are the strongest group of people on earth because they are the ones who are always there for each other. They are the ones who take care of each other, even when you do not realize it or see it. Women are the ones that are always there to listen to you, be there for you, and without even realizing that she is doing so. Women love one another so much that they believe in each other even when they do not have proof.

They trust each other without question or doubt. Through their strength and love comes the greatest glory.
