There's something to say for old friends. The ones you rarely ever see, but who are there one night after 4 years, eager to meet for dinner and smile and eat and toast to old times. But not just because they make you feel safe, or comfortable, or remind you of youth, or energy you may no longer have or feel. But I think these old friends come around so you can talk about the tough stuff, that many others don't want to talk about. Any "old friend" who is really and truly an old friend, is someone you can talk to honestly, someone you may have been through alot with already, or someone who simply knows and acknowledges that YOU have been through alot. Maybe I am just talking out my ass, but I guess there are some people you just know will always be a part of your life...And many others who you know, won't...For those who make you feel like it was yesterday, who make you feel like their home is your home too, and who listen but also shares their own stories, let's raise a glass together and toast..Without those "old friends", life would be quite hollow, shallow and meaningless...
