Terrific soul, lots of humor, Oxford commas, AND a semi-colon. XOXO

I heard someone say, “We know a lot of people, but how many do we know well?” That one stuck with me. I have less than 100 friends on Facebook, so if you are one of those people, know you made a major cut. I want deep relationships, not surface acquaintances. I want to meet you in the good and the bad. When I was going through a bad (moving multiple states away in a less than ideal set of circumstances), I didn’t want the people around who also weren’t there for the good. I combat loneliness frequently, but the longer I am in my new place, the more I seem to be filling those gaps. Thank you for all these writings that get me deep in my heart. The person who can call you friend is truly blessed, indeed.

I love this - "go outside, everything is amazing." BUT go outside; everything is amazing. Reconnect to authentic relationships in whatever way works for you.

❤️from one of those random people you met online in substack grow!
