I’ve spent most of the morning talking to my best friend, L. It feels so good to chat and connect. When we started talking, depression had me wanting to go to bed. But L encouraged me to stay up and kept me talking.
I’m so grateful for L. She’s a true friend through thick and thin. I’m fortunate to have her in my life.
As an introvert, I’m not someone who needs a lot of friends. But I do need a couple, and I’m lucky to have found such good friends. We don’t live close together anymore, but it hasn’t diminished our closeness. L and I met when I hired her to babysit my daughter, who has since become her goddaughter. When she came to interview, I was laid up from ankle surgery and desperate for someone to talk to. And talk she did! She stayed for an hour chatting with me. It was the beginning of a beautiful friendship. Little did I know that day that I was talking to my life long best friend.
In short, I’m grateful and blessed.
