The Secrets of Sisterhood

My "Sisterhood"- Sandy, Melissa, Mom, Roni, Rita



Blood is thicker than water, but blessed be the ties that bind female friends! Much like a mother's instinctive love and care, lady friends will lock arms to defeat any foe that barges against the "sisterhood." And you know what? That sisterhood doesn't even have to be biological.

God designed women with such an intense loyalty to those they love. Take for instance a woman's automatic defense mechanism over her husband. Just let a person cross a loyal wife's husband, and that person won't live to regret it! A loyal wife can calmly lace the coffee with arsenic, serve it to the offender with a smile, and hum a little tune while she waits for him to croak. Do I even need to deal with a Mother's fierce love? It's a love that will stop at nothing to protect. And until a woman is a Mother, she can't even begin to comprehend what I'm saying.

But everyone of us knows about our deep devotion to our "sisters". Whether they be sisters in Christ, sisters by blood, or sisters by association, once there is an established bond, all the dynamite in the Kentucky coal mines can't break it. It's part of our nature.

But there may be a few other reasons why women bond so intimately. A connection that is exclusively "female." Science can't explain it, and men can't fathom it. However, women know these reasons as fact. Although the following is borrowed, it expresses my sentiments exactly!
