The Power of Lasting Friendship

I am leaving for the weekend to spend time with Erika and her family. This was a last minute decision to pack up the family and drive to Southern California. We are now on the same coast and are able to visit each other frequently. Prior to her move, we had not seen each other for about 3 years. This made me wonder why friendships last over the test of time and distance. I think there are so many ways to nurture our friendships without spending quality time together. I am a phone person, so I know that chatting to catch up has helped us along the way. It is staying connected in any way you can that helps these relationships thrive. I am so happy to have this blog, as another tool, to cherish our friendships. You are a great support system and I am lucky to have each of you in my life.
