I'll bet somebody you know would notice. I obviously don't know your friends, but there are probably at least one or two of them that would really care... and you might not figure out who they are until a little more of life passes you by. I'm not just saying this to make you feel better. The beauty of the friendship I have with these women is that it took years and a lot of experience together to build. I didn't consider Robbie this kind of friend for a long time, not until fairly recently. It definitely goes in waves. I think what I'm mostly noticing is the depth of the connection in a friendship like this; it's not just about a friend I can always call. (Besides, I really
can't always call them.)
