She was a guest this morning on Bonnie Hunt. What a treat to watch two wholesome, beautiful women, compared to what we’re usually subjected to.
Jackie was talking about girlfriends, at one point actually tearing up over Farrah Fawcett. And I thought, what a lesson for all of us. This woman, who is grounded and graceful, and who has managed to live a dignified life, despite all the problems along the way, has stayed friends all these years with Farrah, who has always had such a shaky foundation, who has battled very public problems with men and drugs, often in a graceless and undignified manner. Two women who couldn’t be more opposite, yet they have this lasting friendship despite their differences.
We can all learn from this. To embrace our friends and accept their differences, as we hope they do in turn… Wouldn’t it be a boring world if we only had friends that were mirror images of ourselves. We can learn so much from women, girl power is the greatest power on earth….
you dear jan have embraced my imperfections with warmth and ongoing friendship. i always remember this. it is such a good feeling to be forgiven. you are steady and true to all those that you love.
