Friendship Beyond Our Feeds

I love my friends. People who make me laugh, who are there for me, who send me random memes or surprise me with a quick “Hey, thought of you!” text. But not all friends are the same.

There are friends I never see but call every week, friends who live close by and meet me for monthly coffee dates, friends from school, church, my neighborhood, work—and even some from travels long past. Each friendship is a unique note in the symphony of my life.
