Wow, what a hard concept to undertake. In today’s busy world of motherhood, friendship often takes a backseat. With insightful and honest examples of her own trial and error with adult friendships, we see how it is always a work in progress. From her time of being an actress we learn that Lisa was not close to people and would often make superficial friends. How often in life do we ourselves make superficial friends? With each season of life our friends would change, or fall away. Sometimes, we find friends who are not right for us and we have the emotional let down and hurt to go through. It’s not just the old “to have a friend, be a friend” concept. Women need things from their friendships and with this book you are able to identify some ways in order to address those needs in a loving and caring way. Lisa takes you in deep with her struggle to find “safe” friends, something that we all need. I struggle with this daily, I can’t seem to make friends or even work on the relationships that are in place at the moment. As it states in the bible,we are to be relational to one another, the old teach the young. In today’s society, we are so far from that. This book helps bridge the gap and gives you practical things to work from. It is a book worth reading and keeping, but most of all its worth passing on to another “friend”.
