Camile introduces the topic is friendship, how we vibe high and low. The group talks about current, past, and future friendships. Brenda says “Family is what we make it. Sometimes it’s more friends than family.”
Alexandra notes the saying “Blood is thicker than water” comes from a phrase in Latin that means “the blood of made friendships is thicker than the water of the womb” and Brenda agrees 150 million%.
Brenda opens the conversation about how friendships change over the years. Friendships come and go and sometimes people come in or leave depending on where you are in your spiritual journey. She said for her personally, her friendships come in little groupings: childhood, high school, her early mom days were friendless for the most part. After her divorce she had friends who were also divorced. Then she started to collect her tribe as she went along on her spiritual journey. When the pandemic started she began to lose some friends. Camille suggests that the line of connection to some people often stretch and bounce back. She goes on to say that during the pandemic it was harder to see your friends and you had to make a bigger effort to see them.
Aaron comments on something Brenda said earlier about phasing out friendships or a natural fizzing out of friendships during the pandemic. He feels that our friendship as a group solidified during the pandemic because we were taking inventory of the things that were important to us while we were at home. We had to make an effort to keep in touch with people and some friendships fell by the wayside. I only wish them love and light and success. If you have been in a relationship with someone and that friendship no longer works, it’s okay to have a friendship break up
Camille says” that is what Facebook is for, to make sure you are successful and happy.” for a chuckle.
As we close out we raise our glasses in honor of our friendship around the table and the relationships we are creating with our listeners. In classic Aaron fashion he took us out with a flourish “to our witches and warlocks at home, thank you for joining us today. We are so glad you are here. Thank you for being a friend and give all your friends a big hug. Cheers”
