Aww, I've had the most incredible weekend. I'm so knackered at the moment I can barely keep my eyes open but I just wanted to share a huge happy moment of being content with life.
I've reconnected with old friends who I haven't seen for many years, caught up with some good friends who I don't see very often, and seen some of my really close friends. It's really made me think about my friendships and who I am still in contact with after all these years. It's also made me yearn for my student days, when life was easy and had relatively few complications. Lots of great memories and moments of reminiscing!
Although it's not the beginning of the year, it's the beginning of July - wow, half of 2010 is over already... time flies! So I'm making a kind of half year resolution - to make a real effort to maintain my friendships. Instead of thinking that I can't be bothered to call X or make arrangements to see Y, I'm going to really try to keep that contact going. It's too easy to let months go by without speaking to someone.
Friends, real friends, are always there for you and friendships, like all relationships, need working at. It's all about give and take. Go on, ring that old friend you keep meaning to, stop cancelling to see someone because you're now coupled up, go and be a true friend.
