I have friends on 2 planes. The soul and the skin.
The soul, who know a lot more than even our parents or siblings are aware. We rant, complain, whine , we can laugh and cry on each's shoulder. And we keep each other's secrets.
The skin, our personal lives are mostly personal, no heady stuff except about our kids, school, our work lives, colleagues we 'can't stand' and our interests. We poke fun at each other, no hard feelings and when we laugh, we laugh and laugh. It feels very good.
It's like we want to be away from it all and just be us.
It's not superficial, it's just not more than we want to handle. leave the serious stuff to real life.
Thank God for all of them
The friend of my adversity I shall always cherish most.
I can better trust those who helped to relieve the gloom
of my dark hours than those who are so ready
to enjoy with me the sunshine of my prosperity
.
-Ulysses S Grant
