One of the greatest titles we can have is "old friend."
We never appreciate how important old friends are until we are older.
The problem is we need to start our old friendships when we are young.
We then have to nurture and grow those friendships over our middle age
when a busy life and changing geographies
can cause us to neglect those friends.
Today is the day to invest in those people
we hope will call us "old friend" in the years to come.

grow something,
love somebody else,
love ourselves even more,
snuggle with a warm blanket on a Sunday afternoon,
hang "go away" on the door whenever we want,
clean and tidy often... or never,
launch from and return to,
are truly ourselves.
- Jonathan Lockwood Huie
A loving relationship is one in which
the loved one is free to be himself -

to cry with me, but never because of me;

Such a relationship is based upon freedom
and can never grow in a jealous heart.

whether by blood, by marriage, or by choice -
are delicate treasures.

Have the courage to trust that
the beautiful butterflies of your life
will return - or not - as life intends.

even away from the attentions of those
with whom they are most bonded.
