A Tennessee Williams quote reminds us that distance doesn't break real friendships. The speaker shares how she kept bonds alive across 16 years living outside Denmark by checking in and staying genuinely interested in people's lives, and urges you to reach out to old friends, especially after a falling out.
Tennessee Williams said, time does not take away from friendship, neither does separation. And it reminded me of having friends that you've known for a long time, but you may not have spoken to in a while, or having friends that you have had a falling out with, or in some way don't speak to as often as you would like to. And so I just wanted to encourage you to reach out to them today and say hello. Apologize if you need to, or just try to reinstitute the relationship. I spent 16 years living outside of Denmark. I still had friendships when I came home because I remembered to once in a while reach out to people, hear how they were doing, and share a little bit what was going on in my world.
