Theme: Making Friends and Maintaining Friendships
Friends as Mirrors
True friends reflect the best parts of us, even when we can’t see them ourselves. They remind us of our strengths, our potential, and our ability to overcome life’s challenges. In times of transition, this reflection can be a lifeline, helping us rediscover who we are.
Take a moment to think about a friend who sees your light even when you feel surrounded by darkness. What qualities do they notice in you that you sometimes forget? Their belief in you is a gift, one that can inspire you to step into your own power.
Friendships aren’t just about comfort—they’re about growth. When you let friends reflect your strengths back to you, you gain the courage to keep moving forward.
Journaling Prompt: What’s one positive quality a friend has pointed out in you? How can you nurture that quality in yourself?
