Friendship – What makes me hold on and what finally makes me let go

Contributed by Sapna Shah

I mentioned in my Sept 30th social post that I’ve spent a lot of time thinking about friendships over the past year. I’ve always felt comfortable evolving out of them if that’s what eventually happened. Maybe the stability that comes with an enormous and tight-knit support system affords that. Recently, I’ve been actively thinking about friendships. It’s not a rigid process or a ‘what have you done for me lately’ analysis — friendships go two ways. For me, it’s a natural evaluation as I get a greater understanding of who I’m becoming and how I want to live my life.
