A really important part of life is friendship – Crucial!
Friendship means everything!
Nothing in the world as good as a deep belly -laugh with a great friend. And everything else we share:
- hugs
- smiles
- chats
- deep intimate talks about life
- a shoulder to cry on or offering a shoulder to cry on
- hanging out together
- discussions
- honesty
- play
- going to the cinema
- a long walk
- a swim
- a dance
- fooling around
- getting/giving honest loving feed-back
- and so much more………………
All of this adds to releasing “feel good” hormones in the body – which, don’t underestimate it – truly adds to our wellbeing, and greatly supports our health mentally, as well as physically.
Friendships are so precious. Friendships are life.
There is a saying:
“Show me your fiends and I will tell you who you are”
A new book written by Carlin Flora called “Friendfluence” – talks about how friendships make us who we are. It just came out and I can’t wait to read it!
Gretchen Rubin interviewed Carlin Flora about her new book, in Psychology Today – read the interview here
Hope you have a wonderful weekend!

Thank you :-)!!
It is such a good reminder to ensure we make time for our friends. Life sure can get hectic….
Yes life can get too hectic and then we put the most important aside, family and friends.
I don’t know a better way to de-stress and recharge than spending time with friends and family 🙂
Good advice Anne 🙂 You are good at reminding us what is important in life 🙂 I will be interested in reading the book too 🙂 Thank you!
Thank you my friend 🙂
Very true. It is the quality of friends, not the quantity. Some people get this horribly wrong!
Yes, so true Cass!
