These recent msgs among us Sher alums reminds me to reach out more to my local friends. In the articles, you read that as many people age they have fewer, more select friends. I'm tacking in another direction, I am creating more friends as I age. About 10 years ago I had a short span in which several people close to me died. And I thought, I need more friends!
I think I threaded about it on Barbara's forum. Found it: "Sun Jun 13, 2010 me: I don't know if it's Asperger's Syndrome Lite or what, but I find I need to replenish my storehouse of friends. My theme song: "Friends" by the Divine Miss M, Bette Midler."
For 2023, my codename for this is Project Oasis, because friends are a social oasis as I caravan through life. With friends I am renewed and refreshed, challenged, supported, and SEEN and HEARD. I echo back the same, and we part ready to take on the Others.
“I would rather walk with a friend in the dark, than alone in the light.”
― Helen Keller
