Keeping Friends Close

Recently I had to begin closing a chapter in my life.  It was a significant chapter in my life but it is and was the best decision.  As I have stated in prior conversations on here and on facebook, while I want to have an open conversation with you my reader, but there are some conversations that are not for public consumption.   I firmly believe one must keep their personal lives personal.

With that being said, I wanted to write a moment and express one constant that has helped me through my life – Keeping Friends Close.  Time after Time, friends are the ones that have gotten me through so many difficult times in my life.  They are the source of my strength.  I am not ashamed of that fact but derive great satisfaction and I am humbled by those friends who stand by me.

It sometimes is difficult to determine who are truly your friends.  There are thousands of articles and thoughts on this topic.  I will say this though – I can tell who my friends are by the way the fact they are there for me regardless of the time we last spoke and the expectation of receipt.

I look forward to talking about more topics.  I had considered discussing more but will leave it at that for now.
