Friends Redux

 I was thinking of friends I've had in my life.  

We all have different kinds.

Sometimes childhood friends diverge.  Maybe some maintain.

High school sweethearts end with graduation.  A few carry on and even marry.  Then again others split eventually.

Some longtime friends turn their backs.  Maybe there are embarrassing incidents and some don't want to see a reminder of indiscretion one way or other.

Others are suborned because a friend might interfere with crimes.

Then there are friends separated by death aka transition/crossing over.  Those actually mean noone can actually separate friends again.

Friends serve a need at certain times.

True friends are just that.  They do serve and that is one another.  

Give and take.  Honesty.  

It's a rollercoaster ride.

That honesty is sometimes painful.  It is healing, keeping in mind some wounds take time to heal

Don't fear.

Worth the risk.
