True friends stay in-touch, school acquaintanceships are often mistaken as friends. The social aspect of school I think is what we miss more than those brief relationship. Reaching out and beyound the front door of your home and workplace are what helps me. I say it like I'm a pro, but I too fall back into my dungeon and need to get out more at times!
