Last night we celebrated my wife's birthday with some old friends. The term old friends suggest that in life you continue to make new ones and that in some cases you still have friendships that have endured.
These enduring friendships are the ones that have the greatest capacity for pain and joy. To know someone so well that you know there weaknesses and yet to love them still is a sacred stewardship. To know someone so well that you have multiple memories to ignite unrestrained laughter is a the gift of having endured.
You never feel awkward, you pick up where you left off, you leave secure and lifted...It's good to have old friends...rare...but good.
