Friends

Websters definition of friends is: 1) one attached to another by affection or esteem
                                                 2) one that is not hostile
                                                 3) a favored companion
                                                 4) acquaintance
These seem so, I don't know...watered down.
Some synonyms are  amigo, buddy, chum, compadre, comrade,  confidante, crony, familiar,  mate , and pal; and even these seem soft and not quite right.
A friend to me is someone who has touched something inside me around the heart area. A friend is someone you share things in common with whether it is an upbringing, a belief, or a way of life. Some times you are drawn to someone who is not like you at all, or so it seems. Sometimes it just takes a while to find the things that you have in common. Some of my friends, if you had said to me 10 yrs ago would be my friend, I wouldn't have believed you. I have friends from all over the world now and I have not left my house to meet them in person.  I say to people outside our world, that I have friends all over the world and they are like, "they are not friends, you have never met them." And I tell them that they are as real as you are in front of me. If they cry, I cry; if they laugh, I laugh; if they jump off a building... well I won't do that, because they prolly have powers that I don't have.
A friend of mine recently posted that she was feeling pain because whenever she got clost to someone, they seemed to leave. I told her that it was because she cared that she was feeling pain. So that got me thinking about friends and leaving; and I wanted you to know that when you leave, you do leave a hole that is never filled the same way again.
Many of you  have touched something deep within me. Most of you have made me laugh with your antics, pulled me into you shenanagins, or made me humble with your very presence. You have brought me into your lives and in turn you have come into mine. 
So I just wanted you to know that you are all my friends, even if we have never met, or if we don't talk every day, or if we have not a single thing in common except a book. I am loyal to a fault and will fight for you till the end if you think you were wronged. I will probably do so to the detrement of my own health, because most of you are immortal and can take care of your selves

LOVE YA ALL!!!

Your friend,

Selena,

Welcome to my Blog page

Hi everyone. Welcome to my blog page. I am new at this so bear with me. Let me tell you a little bit about myself. I am the 7th daughter of a seventh daughter. I am 1of 9 girls, my poor parents. My sisters are as follows:
Esmeralda (Essie)
Yasmina (Mina)
Petra (Pet)
Ekaterina (Trina)
Karma
Tiyana (Tia)
Tabitha (Tabby)
Amanda (Mandy)

We are a pretty tight-knit family, yeah we may fight and tease each other, but I pity the fool who gets in between me and my sisters. And I know the feeling is mutual, I know they have my back, especially Tabby, who carries knives on her person and doesn't need a reason to fight.
I grew up in New Orleans and spend my whole life hanging out in the French Quarter, seeing things that I shouldn't be seeing and always wondering why there were so many blond guys that look like Fabio that hung out there. When I asked my mom she just told me that it was the gift of sight and left it at that.
I started to show evidence of having the gift when I was 6 yrs old. I predicted that Mina was going to break her arm when she and Pet were having a fight. It was really not out of reach, they fought all the time but a week after I made the prediction, it happened. Mina and Pet were fighting and Mina went to hit Pet. Pet pulled her knee up and Mina hit her there and broke her arm, Pet's knee cap was fine. My mother was so proud of me, she bought me my first deck of Tarot cards and started to teach me how to use them. *laughing* Then she tood Mina to the hospital.
Some people may think we are a strange family, but it is the family I have and I wouldn't trade them for the world.
I know you all have questions and I know the #1 question is about Bill and how we met, but I will save it for the next time. It is a doosy...he was so straight laced until he met me *giggles*
