Sisterhood

The Zeta Iota Chapter of Gamma Phi Beta has always been proud of the diversity within the walls of this sorority. This diversity is one factor that strengthens the sisterhood of this chapter. Each girl in this sorority is a unique asset to the organization and brings with her a color all her own that shines ever so brightly.

 

"I see your true colors shining through, I see your true colors and that's why i Love You, so don't be afraid to let them show, your true colors, true colors are beautiful like a rainbow."

~Cyndi Lauper

 

"Whenever the road is too long, whenever the wind is too strong where ever this journey may lead to, I will be there for you, I will be there for you, I'll always be there."

~Jessica Andrews

 

"If you need a friend I'm sailing right behind."

~Simon & Garfunkle

 

"It feels like home to me, it feels like home to me, it feels like i'm all the way back where i belong."

~Chantal Kreviazuk

 

"A small group of girls walk down the street throwing a ball in the air. One says to another 'Hey, I'll always be your Sister, I'll always be your friend. Do you remember when we thought we were immortal and the games we played always had a happy end? I know it's not true, time keeps passing, but I'm glad to spend my time with you."

 

"For there is no friend like a sister, in calm or stormy weather, to cheer one on the tedious way, to fetch one if one goes astray, to lift one if one totters down, to strengthen whilst one stands."

~ Christina Rossetti

 

"When you think it's all too much, and you want to run away, and everyone around you is, be the one to stand strong. Be the one to pick up the pieces. Be the one who goes out on a limb, manages discomfort, and fights for what you love. Be the one that people will admire. Be the one that you can admire. Be true. Be dedicated. Be loyal."

~Kelly Winkelbauer

 

"There is a special kind of freedom sisters enjoy. Freedom to share inner most thoughts, to ask a favor, to show their feelings. The freedom is simply to be themselves."

 

"You keep your past by having sisters. As you get older, they're the only ones who don't get bored if you talk about your memories."

~Deborah Maggoch

 

"People ask why I am in a sorority and I try to explain all the things a sorority is that they cannot see. A sorority is more than letters on a sweatshirt, I say. More than traditional songs, a gold pin, rituals, and obligation, or a way of life. A sorority is learning about people, a sorority is giving with expecting a return. A sorority is earning respect from others as well as for yourself. A sorority will not solve all your problems. But I have made good friends and found confidence there to help me take life one step at a time."

 

Sisterhood is many things. It's a warm smile on a cold and rainy day, a friendly hug, a cheerful hello...It's all that a good and lasting friendship is, only better. It's treasured. It's sacred. It's knowing that there will always be someone there for you. It's dreams shared, and goals achieved. It's counting on others and being counted on. It is real."

 

"We weren't sisters by birth, but we knew from the start, that fate brought us together to be sisters by heart."

 

"Sisters touch your heart in ways no other could. Sisters share...their hopes, their fears, their love, everything they have. Real friendship springs from their special bonds."

~Carrie Bagwell

 

"Sisterhood is the essence of all the wisdom of the ages, distilled into a single word. You cannot see sisterhood, neither can you hear it nor taste it. But you can feel it a hundred times a day. It is a pat on the back, a smile of encouragement. It's someone to share with, to celebrate your achievments."

 

"Sometimes the best way to figure out who you are is to go to a place where you do not have to be someone else"

 

"A lifetime of benefits, impossible to measure."

 

"If you need a friend I am always one and there are many more sisters where i come from."

 

"It's a pleasure to know you, a pleasure to see you smile, a comfort to know, that we'll share the road awhile. Pleasure is fleeting, and comforts are far between, it's a pleasure to know you, and the comfort you bring."

 

"She is your mirror, shining back at you with a world of
possibilities. She is your witness, who sees you at your worst
and best, and loves you anyway. She is your partner in crime,
your midnight companion, someone who knows when you are
smiling, even in the dark. She is your teacher, your defense
attorney, your personal press agent, even your shrink. She is
your sister."

 

"To have a loving relationship with a sister is not simply to
have a buddy or a confident -- it is to have a soulmate for
life."

 

"Some people start off as friends, then become best friends, but
over time they become sisters and that bond can never be broken"
