Friends are great to have. Women do friends much better than men - men often lead solitary lives devoid of the close relationships women develop. Most guys say they really don't need these friends and not having them makes no difference.
Had two different lunch with friends opportunities this week. Tuesday with the church staff and interested others (mixed group of men and women). Wednesday with friend and support team member Tom and his wife (and support team member) Nancy's dad, Jerry, who lives with them.
Getting back to the point above, something Pastor John Fullerton (PJ) said on Tuesday fits with guys saying not having close friends doesn't make much difference was, "If you only, ever at at McDonald's, and you really liked McDonalds, but one day you ate a steak with all the trimmings at Ruth's Chris, your world would be changed!"
Meaning, to me, is that habit or routine is not bad but it leaves no room for finding better or the best. This time in my life is giving me the opportunity to break routine and it is bringing me closer to some really good friends.
