My best friend from high school lives on the other side of the country. After I moved to Wisconsin, we didn't see each other for 17 years. Now we try to get together every few years, but in general we lead completely separate lives, only occasionally communicating through Facebook. But whenever we do get together we pick up right where we left off. The old intimacy has never died - it has only deepened. (I know that I can tell her anything at all, and receive a supportive, encouraging response.) We are planning a get-together this October and it will be as though we were never apart. A friendship like this is such a blessing.<br /><br />Oh - you wanted a time figure - I've known her for for 35 years. :)Mrs. Micawberhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08680436275934263596noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3216392190947851272.post-89850858290738990062013-04-20T19:50:53.354+12:002013-04-20T19:50:53.354+12:00Gosh! I thought I commented earlier, but I guess ...Gosh! I thought I commented earlier, but I guess not. Weird. I wanted to say I do have elementary school friends that I still hang out with. That's around 55 years. My husband is my best friend and we've been married 40 years now. Oh... and then there's my brother who was my friend first. He's been my true blue friend for 60 years so he should be first.Kayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07461569436322815787noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3216392190947851272.post-38866962396691105352013-04-19T23:30:22.684+12:002013-04-19T23:30:22.684+12:00Glad to hear you are recovering Paul I know it mus...Glad to hear you are recovering Paul I know it must be hard for you not to want to jump run bike and move around but you are doing it and all will be back to normal soon "chin up" as my Grampa used to say.<br />I have had a friend from school since we were five we are now 60 so I guess I beat you we talk regularly and see each other occasionally yes it never grows old.<br />Love your songs.

That's interesting to see a friend you've know since age 10. <br /><br />:-) MarionAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09499442282999349686noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3216392190947851272.post-32953637926041245452013-04-19T14:25:17.638+12:002013-04-19T14:25:17.638+12:00Hi Paul!

Two of my longest and best friends in my life (outside my husband and my siblings) both died too soon, and I miss them every day. But I always feel that they are near. I have another wonderful friend who volunteered in my classroom every year I taught (25 years). I am still fortunate to have her very much in my life. I don't have a ton of friends, but I have very special ones. I've reconnected with Ron (Sophie) whom I met almost 50 years ago! He's becoming pretty special! Feel better soon!
