I've met some great people in life that no matter how long the time or how far the distance have remained good friends. A now really good friend of mine, who I met when I first moved to the states, was there for me when my mum became ill and finally passed. They were just there, did not intrude and just listened. We hadn't spoken for a long time and yesterday when driving home they reached out with a simple text "You alive?" Immediately I smiled and rather than just text some off the cuff message I called.... We spoke for about an hour and it was as if we just picked up where we left off.
Few things have such a huge impact on happiness in life like friendship does. And all good friends strive to be a source of love and support.Whether you are celebrating or consoling about bumps in the road of life you can alwys rely on good friends to be there for you.
C.S. Lewis once wrote "Friendship is unecessary, like philosophy, like art....It also has no survival value; rather it is one of those things that gives value to survival."
