Friendship

"Those truly linked don't need correspondence.
When they meet again after many years apart,
Their friendship is as true as ever."

I've always enjoyed many friendships in which we "pick up where we left off," and I believe that usually this is not only possible but also probable in the truest sense between friends. However, just in the past year or two I have lost more than one friendship I would have considered forever. In moving on from them I understand now that the potential for friendship always exists, and that being willing to let go the old and take on the new is a sign of growth, not disloyalty.
