I have an older friend I talk to a lot. We're both Christian, so we also pray with and for each other.
Anyway...its a good friendship. When we were first friends, it was all about her supporting me, because I was so far gone and just...destroyed, really.
But, yesterday, she needed somebody to talk to about family issues and such, and I was there for her. It felt good on a number of levels. Its crazy how isolated people in modern American society are, even people who work, go to school, go to church, volunteer, etc. I'm beginning to see that one can be around lots of people and still be completely, truly alone. Its sad. :-(
But yeah. That's what I did yesterday.
