- In many ways, friends define us and keep us sane...its a mystery why making time for these people we love can quickly get moved down the priority list...Why is it so hard to stay in touch then?
- ...its likely that you're just not getting the friend time you used to. In part this has happened because you trust that you can rely on your friends to be there when you really need them. But you always need them. Friendship is not a constant state of connection; it needs to be tended, and improves with tending.
- "Its important to think of time with friends as something you need, like exercise and a good night's sleep, Every hour of friendship time you add to your life diminishes stress and increases your happiness" Tom Rath, author or Vital Friends: The People You Can't Afford to Live Without
- Who has time to gab when there's a family to feed and laundry to wash? "Don't feel guilty about taking time away from family because it all comes back and makes you a better partner or parent" Psychologist Irene Levine, PhD. (This is very true for me)
