Friendship anchor

The whole morning we sat in Beautiful J's kitchen and talked. Months of catching up. Even if the occasion was driven by sad news it was lovely to be in a trio from the past. There is something with old friendship that can't be recreated in any other relationship. Sharing a history, knowing the families, growing up together, experiencing being teenagers together to then develop into adults. It's like having an anchor that is always there, no matter how long the buoy line is.
