This is another of those “I am so lucky” posts !

Have you ever thought what your life would be like without good friends?  I can’t even begin to imagine it.   I am so very fortunate in that I have a wide circle of good friends – some from my childhood, some from various work places, etc. My longest friendship (we never say oldest)  goes back 62 years…..NOW THAT IS SPECIAL.  Another group goes back almost 50 years.  It’s a good thing they aren’t blogging about me – they all know way too much!!!

Whoever said it gets more difficult to make friends as you get older is or was full of baloney.  I have recently made wonderful new friends in my new neighbourhood……and I met and made another good friend when we both had knee replacements at the same time, in the same place.  If you are open to making friends, it will happen.

Friendships last if they are cultivated – just like a garden.  You may not talk or meet often, but you must stay connected.

To all my wonderful friends – THANKS FOR BEING THERE!
