Folks.....

Word of the Day......

Folks...n.,.....people

I've always loved the word FOLKS....it denotes comfort, ease, a loving simpleness.  It's common in the South to ask....'Who are their folks?'  Hopefully when that is asked about OUR children, people don't raise eyebrows.  :)))  To me your folks are just that....your folks. I think the word stretches farther than our families.  It runs freely through our entire personal community.  When you're with your folks, if you're in an old pair of jeans and t shirt, that's ok; if your pedicure isn't perfect, that's ok, if you're eating off of paper plates rather than the china, that's ok.  When you need help, you call your folks.  When you are sad, you call your folks.  When you have great news to share, you call your folks.  Your folks are your everyday zone....the place where you can be yourself.  You are accepted when you're with your folks.  We all have PEOPLE in our lives, but we are truly blessed with our FOLKS.   I hope you have many folks in your life.  But more importantly I hope many people call you their folks.
