An old friend
It takes time to become an old friend. But time passes at its own pace. We can’t hurry the depth and breadth of understanding that comes with months and years. That’s why loyalty is so special. It’s what deepens and sweetens friendships.
The world is better with old friends – people who know and are known by others. Those relationships become strong bonds that teach us how to be better spouses, parents, family members and teammates. Those friendships become the places we visit as life hurls its best.
But, the only way we’ll find old friends, is if we take the time to be an old friend.
Find the people who know your story, get to know theirs, and as time passes, fight to keep them close.
You’ll find yourself growing old with the best of people.
Trust me.
