I understand the part about family taking up time. I am friends with a lot of my family. In fact my two oldest kids and their S.O's are some of our best friends, we all hang out together all the time. I feel very blessed by that. Ms O, I don't have to tell you that I cherish you among my dear dear friends. I feel honored to have found you. :) Leafless, That actually was a hard lesson for me to learn. I used to mourn each and every person who passed through my life. Took it very hard and was honestly pretty clingy. I had to learn that it was OK to let go, it didn't mean I was being rejected. Jenny, Yeah I can think of a few friends in you past who needed to be shown the door! But you have a lot of really great ones now! Daz, that sums it up nicely, appreciate what we have, and who we have in our lives. I sure am glad to have the friends I have met here. For sure you!!

My husband and I are very close, and I find that with that, and my children, I really don't have the time or energy to give to anyone else - though I do recognize the need for friendship outside of my close-knit circle. I haven't really found the right solution. When my kids were little I had a few close friends who had kids the same age, and we had some really great times. As the kids have gotten older we've definitely lost touch. Thanks for making me think... Wendi, thanks for another terrific reflection.

Loved every word. Never have been one to know how to attract true friends. However, now, when I least expect it, the "true" ones are entering my life. Somehow, when I quit trying to get friends, the Universe has, in my final years, begun to send them to me. True, caring, honest, of like mind, friends. True blessings, every one. Hugs, Ms. O Hotel Agatha The Between and Beyond A true “keeper”, Wendi. Loved every word.

There was a purpose to it, a lesson, a message or maybe just a little comfort to be shared at that point in the journey." Very true. :) “People come into your lives and then they pass through.

Very true. :)

How do you do it, you always post exactly what I need to hear! You must be reading my mind! I have friends who even though I see rarely, I can still talk to and it's like no time has passed. There are friends I miss having but now know I am better off without them. I also have friends who I know care, I just sometimes have a hard time seeing it, I know I care so much and am not sure I'd get it in return! Keep up the GREAT work! Beautiful post yet again!
