If you think of the different types of friends you’ve had throughout your life, I would guess it looks like a myriad of different personality types, hometowns, life experiences, and more. It’s a great tapestry of different types of people that have influenced you, threaded throughout your life. We spend a whole lot of time with friends over the years. There are many different types of friendships that we have.
Seeing, hearing and knowing our friends brings a new level of intimacy to our relationships. It allows us to understand each other, even if we don’t agree. It allows us to empathize with each other, even if we would do things differently. We can step into their shoes, and feel how they’re feeling, and be there for each other. What we try to do for others, is what we usually want for ourselves. What do you try to do for others that you desire in friendships? When you first hear them, really see them for who they are without judgment, and know them - they’ll be open to hearing what you desire from friendships. You have an opportunity to connect on a deeper level with friends, which brings life, and be intentional in how you show them love and appreciation. This will give them the opportunity to respond back.
