June 8, 2008 is Best Friend day
The origins of Best Friend's Day seem a bit murky. Some people feel it is a day to celebrate the four legged best friends in our lives, to reflect on how they came to be with us and to celebrate how wonderful life is with our furry friends. The other side of that coin is the more tradition best friend, the person who has been the shoulder to cry on and the ear that listens to us day or night. A best friend is someone who will stop by out of the blue with a pound of chocolate or a bottle of wine and an expression on their face which says simply - "What can I do?" June 8, 2008 is Best Friend day. A day to celebrate the close friendships we all have and value so greatly. A simple phone call to say, "I am thinking about you and do you remember when?" or a quick note to say, "It has been too long since we last got together, let's change that soon." Practically joined at the hip with the person who bears the title of best friend, then take an extra moment to remind that person just how special they are. Anything from an extra smile or a bonus compliment up to and including a neatly wrapped and totally unexpected gift would be a great way to celebrate a day which celebrates the friendships which mean so much.
