I get by with a little help…

A very dear friend of mine is going through a tough time right now.  It’s brought back some powerful and sometimes painful memories of some bad patches I’ve gone through myself.  One not unlike the situation my friend is in right now.  The thing that has always brought me back from the brink of destruction long enough for me to take hold of myself and get through things has always been my friends.  I just don’t know that the value of close and loyal friends can ever be overestimated.  I have a lot of friends that I’ve know for years.  Decades, in some cases.  Those rare people that can get along with you for a prolonged period of time should be treasured.

So I wanted to thank my friends for being there for me all these years.  I hope that I can repay that in some way by being there whenever needed (be it Saturday afternoon or 3am tomorrow) for them, like they’ve been there for me.

  1. No thanks necessary, man. I take cash money.

    Honestly though, If they need help, I ‘m here too.

  2. I love you, Akanthos. Very, very much. Thank you. And I really appreciated the phone call last night.

    And Beaucifer — I’d love you, too, if you’d answer your phone every once in a while when I call to say, “Let’s go get coffee!” ;) Awww, okay. You know I’m crazy about you.

    BTW, have either of you considered ending up on the West Coast? Does Salt Lake really own your souls? ;)
