Monday’s thoughts: True Friendship

As I think back on the last 20 years, I realize how much I’ve changed & how far I’ve come. It’s difficult for me to make close friend connections. I lost many friends when I went through my divorce, went to grad school & my training to become a therapist, & not being able to socialize as much due to autoimmune disease. A few people have taken the time to get to know me, listened to me without judging, & have stayed around through my ups & downs. Being someone who has a history complex trauma, it’s hard for me to trust people. I am very thankful to those few people who have given me a chance. Those few people are blessings to me. I always say if you have 2 or 3 really close friends in life, you are very fortunate. 😊
