Seeing a good friend can be a reminder to notice our surroundings. To feel love for a friend, and to feel loved by a friend, is one of the best feelings in the world. It reminds me that many things are not important that seem to be — like reading emails — and that some things are important — like being yourself, following your heart, being kind, and being awesome. At letting the natural awesomeness of yourself loving unfold. For example, after I had talked and walked with a good friend for several hours, and was by myself again, I felt that I could not bear to look at my phone. I could not bear to read anything vapid. All I could do was to sit for a while, and feel. I felt that walking outside with a friend is one of the most important things you can possibly do. I felt that I wanted my friend to know if anything was needed, ever, to let me know in case there was something I could provide.
