April update
I haven't posted here for quite a while so I feel like I need to write something just to show that I'm still lurking here.
I went on a good long walk with my friend B today. She's just come back from a 6 week trip overseas and I hadn't seen for a while before that as she was busy so it was nice to catch up. I like talking to B because we're often on the same wavelength about things. I think she's one of my friends who understands my need to live a meaningful life, not just any kind of life. And figuring out what that means on a short or medium term basis can be very difficult. In the long term big picture scheme of things you just want to contribute positively somehow. But what that means every day can be difficult. While we don't necessarily have the same interests, having that as a character trait means that we have a lot in common.
It's good to have friends that you can just talk to and not have to explain things.
But it's also good to have friends who are different and make you question some things you just assumed to be true.
