The BEAM of Friendship

“To the world you may be just one person, but to one person you may be the world.” ~ Brandi Snyder

Being alone can be empowering. Accomplishing something yourself is an undertaking. And yet, there are some times, many times, where the power of another person, especially a friend, can make all the difference in the world. That friend can even allow you to feel more welcomed, assertive, confident, important, fun, funny, and just real!

According to Dictionary.com, the verb form of beam means to emit in, or to smile radiantly, and, after all, isn't that what friendship can do for us?

Today, and each day, extend that BEAM of friendship, meaning:

Be a friend (not too busy for others)

Embrace a friend (who doesn't like a hug from someone who care)

Ask a friend (often another opinion can assist you with your direction)

Make a friend (you can never have too many!)

In our gratitude, interaction, and celebration of friends and our friendships, we shine a little brighter, and do make the difference in this world...we even beam because of it!
