Second on the 2nd: anything goes

As most of you know, whenever possible, I like my Second Look to somehow reflect what our current host at Art Journal Journey is featuring.  That means, since Aimeslee chose Anything Goes, I wanted to do something on Friendship.  For two years, I joined a weekly group at Journal 52.  The following is from week 31 in August, 2014.

 

At Journal 52 this week's prompt is Friendship.  This prompt left me scratching my head and wondering how I was going to demonstrate friendship, since the majority of my friends are those I've made around the world on the internet.  I only have about 10 close friends and all but four of them live in other towns.

Leave it to Bleubeard, who suggested I show one of his friends.  And since he seldom gets much recognition, I thought this would be a perfect time for him to pick a friend and show what friends and friendships are all about.

He even picked some of the quotes

that represent how he feels about friends.

And of course, he had to pick a dear friend of his, too.

I hope you realize this was all in jest, because the image came from an old calendar, and the quotes and sayings were all computer generated and glued onto a used file folder.  However, I hope you enjoyed Bleubeard's and my take on friendship this week, because it's the only place you'll see my entry, since I'm not a member of Facebook or Flickr.

Now it's time to share your own Second on the 2nd.  The rules are quite simple and everyone is welcome to join the fun look back.  All you have to do is bring back a post that you are especially proud of, or perhaps one you shared before anyone knew your blog existed.  Any post, any genre, any artistic endeavor is acceptable, as long as it's been published sometime in the past.  Then link below (direct links only, please) and Bleubeard and I, along with other Second on the 2nd friends, will be by to visit.  If your T Stands For Tuesday post is the same as your Second on the 2nd, please share it both places.  This is for Second on the 2nd, only.

  2. I love those quotes on friendship. And a friend for Bluebeard. I am fortunate to have many friends. Mostly fellow Christians as we are a rare breed here and we like to stick together. (I mean protestants are a rare breed as 99% of the country is Catholic) I have a 'bestie' here in Spain and one in the UK. And my oldest friend is in the Netherlands.
    Fantastic that you were able to comment.
    See you tomorrow,

    PS my folding tables (yes, I have more than one) are very easy to set up and I still use them occasionally.

  4. "Friends: Reason, season, lifetime", is what my friend fK always says... We met at a seminar (on railway, of course).
    I lost some friends on the way, it is sad, but her quote helps.

Your thoughts are very important to Bleubeard and me. I appreciate it when you care enough to stop by and even more when you leave a short message letting me know you were here.

I don't want to ever turn on comment moderation, so when I find comments that don't relate to my blog content, your comment will immediately be deleted.
