Of course I watched Barbara Walter's Oprah Special last night! It was great. Oprah sat down with Barbara to discuss everything from her career and this being the last season of her show to her personal life with Stedman.
One of the best parts of the show for me though was when Barbara asked Oprah about her bff Gayle. It was the first time in the whole interview that Oprah had to stop and get her words together. Once she did, with tears in her eyes she replied,
"She is the mother I never had, the sister everybody would want, she is the friend, that everybody deserves. I dont know a better person. I Dont. Know. a better person."She continued..
"The therapy that I didnt have and the therapy that I dont need is because of Gayle."Now people can look at their relationship and speculate, but I think those are people who are lonely and cant honestly say that they have a true best friend. Those of use who do can agree whole heartedly with what Oprah said. The whole show was great. Even after all of these years and feeling like I know Oprah (what she allows her viewers to know of her anyway) I still felt like I was learning something. She is a well of wisdom and inspiration. Loved it.
she is lucky. You cant get friends like that. Not even with all the money Oprah has
