My best friend and I go way back to the first grade. Ever since then, she has been there for me when I needed her, and so have I. Keeping our friendship has demanded time from us. Throughout the years, if we had a period if time where we drifted apart, it was always because we were not spending time hanging out and barely even talking at all. Now that I live 8 hours away from my hometown, we have noticed our friendship is strained. But every time I visit home we make time to hang out and reconnect. A lot of the principles discussed in chapter ten are displayed in our friendship. Some key components in our friendship are trust and acceptance. I've never felt like I had to put on a facade to get along with my friend. We accept each other for who we both are. The second component we have is trust. I know I can depend on her. It is because of this we can share information with eachother that we generally wouldn't with others.
