I’ve had several people that I have considered my best friends at different times in my life. A lot of things can happen that cause changes in these relationships., and we should cherish our friendships for what they bring into our lives.
We all have different reasons for spending time with friends instead of family over the holidays. Distance or estrangement or even lack of a family altogether can push us to create a chosen family.
Previously, I talked about the power that words have to tear us down. But, as much as words can tear us down, they can also build us up. Uplifting words have the power to change lives for the better in unimaginable ways.
Words can build us up. They can also shake us to the core, tearing us to the ground. There are many times that we are hurt by the careless words of the people that we love.
Sometimes the lyrics move us. Other times it is the rhythm and melody. There is something about music that strikes emotional chords in each of us. Music helps us express emotions, as well as feel them.
One of the most basic and primal desires in our relationships is physical contact. Almost immediately, everyone thinks of sexual intimacy. But the physical intimacy that I am talking about is less than that, and yet much deeper than sex all at the same time.
