The 5 of us had never all been together before, even though—w/ the addition of a few others—they've been a part of almost all of my life.

It was so nice to just sit back and take it all in, watching people who are so important to me enjoying one another's company.

It was also a great reminder of how lucky I am to have such incredible, loving, supportive friends—& friendships that have lasted so long.

The four people at that table know me — my ups & downs, failings & flaws — and they've always been there, since I met each of them.

I posted the picture for
#tbt on IG & FB as a bit of a joke, since it was just Monday, but, between them, they represent my past 20 years.1 reply 1 retweet 1 like -

Two of them have known me since undergrad, two more recently but still since before 2010. They are friendships that have lasted.

Such friendships are so important. Monday night was a reminder of the power of such friendships. They are powerful and comforting.

They are also grounding and simple. When my ego is getting the better of me, I need only find a good friend to help remind me that I am me.

That's so important! They can be proud of me without reservation—while also making certain that I remember some humility and gratitude.

Those 4 & a few others are here in this world to do that for me—along w my family, of course—& I'm just so grateful to have them in my life.

So, that's what I'm thinking about and grateful for tonight. Now, tho, it's bedtime. ... Night, all, and let us be good to one another.
