Musings on friendship

Friendship is incredibly important. Since leaving university, I have discovered how much harder it is to make new friends in the “real world”. Despite joining a local am-dram group, taking up dance classes and becoming involved in my local church, friendship has been something that has been quite elusive. There may be a lot of people in my social circle but very few that I would describe as friends. Whilst some of my closest friendships have sprung up very quickly, others take a lot of time to grow and tonight has been a very pleasant evening cultivating a budding friendship.
