Despite the changes that we go through during our lives, it’s comforting and refreshing all at once when we have some things that always remain there. I honestly haven’t kept that many friends over the years, so the ones I do have, I’m extremely grateful we still are connected. The friends who have known you the longest who stay in touch with you – those the ones who will usually see how much you have evolved and changed – and are also the ones who will keep you in check when you do really stupid things. And it’s the most warming feeling when you know that you are happy in your current stage of life, that long-time friend is, and both of you are genuinely, truly happy for each other.
