On Friendship

Daughter L was at her boyfriend's family cottage a few weeks ago and sent us this photo of her breakfast. It is a bread bowl with egg and vegetables. Doesn't it look yummy?


I read this story in the newspaper about these lifelong friends who met 70 years ago. I was struck by this paragraph: "Separately, each woman gives a near-identical answer about the other: She listens, she never judges, she helps me. She is reliable, she is kind. I can tell her things I couldn’t tell anybody else."

How lucky they are to have found such a friendship!
