Friends don't let friends go unloved

I like being a friend. It is such an honor to love on someone and serve them in their needs. Of course, it's nice when they return the favor. But we don't serve them expecting to be served in return. We do it out of love. That's the best part.  

So in Carrie's absence, I thought it would be fun to let her know that we missed her while she was off visiting family in her homeland. After thinking about all of the things she loves, I concluded there is one thing that has been on her want list for a while. Best of all, it's something YOU can all help me with. (And I really hope you do!)

Here's the thing; it's so simple (and this is one reason why I love Carrie so). The thing that would just tickle her pink: Pictures of YOU wearing Sock It to Me socks. Even more brilliant: if the picture conveyed a notable landmark (for example, in front of Big Ben, peering at the Golden Gate Bridge, or climbing a mountain in the Himalayas). That way we can drop your photo on a global map and show where in the world you are... and where in the world SITM socks are being worn!

Hopefully you've got a photo already stored on your desktop. If not, try staging a little photo shoot with a friend. It's fun (see link at left). Then, just send your photo to me (press [at] sockittome.com) with the subject titled "With love from (city/country where photo was taken)". And that's it. No stamp required, no prize offered... just love. Because love wins.

Thanks for being a part of our lives here at SITM, friends! xoxo

"The most I can do for my friend is simply to be his friend. I have no wealth to bestow on him. If he knows that I am happy in loving him, he will want no other reward. Is not friendship divine in this?" ~ Henry David Thoreau
