National Girlfriends Day
Huff/Post 50
Girlfriends Day is a great idea. It invites us to search for the words and gestures that can only begin to acknowledge the importance of our own precious “circle of trust.” Moreover, unlike the other designated days of honor, this one isn’t about one person; it is about the alchemy that binds women together.
Women are organizing all kinds of celebratory events — a spa day, a sleepover, a retreat of their choice (I will be at the Women at Woodstock West in Berkeley at a retreat, speaking about girlfriends and making new ones), a night on the town. It hardly matters; the laughter, honesty, trust, and delight will be the same. I would like to propose one more group activity — changing the world.
