Friends for health!

A person really can not put a price tag on how much a friend is worth. It is always amazing when I spend time with my friends. It gives me a great deal of satisfaction listening to the things that have happened to them - funny stories from past and present, listening to information about their lives, and just basking in their crazy personalities. I love each and every one of them and it is a constant reminder on how important it is to go out and make friends. It is good for your mental health. It calms the spirit and soothes the soul. AND if you have a few CRAZY ones - all the better - because then you have laughter as well.
Today, my friends came over and pulled me out the door so that we could go to the coffee and smoothie cafe in town and chat over our favorite drinks. It still boggles my mind that they can be so loving and not once did they comment on how dark the circles are under my eyes or the fact that I hadn't even jumped in the shower! Because of fast paced events in my life - I haven't been getting any sleep (I don't recommend it) and life in general has been in chaos at my house. They may or may not have known it... but, I needed the break. It came at a good time.
It wouldn't have come at all... had I not had friends.
