Friends to me are extremely important, and as many of my friends know, I cherish my friendships with them deeply.  I also try very hard to get in touch with friends of the past and surprise them with an email or a phone call.  Currently I am still looking for some friends from High School with no luck, but I am sure I will find them someday.
My College friends are very important.   I went to three Colleges.  I went to Nyack College in Nyack, New York.  Then I went on to Toccoa Falls College in Toccoa Falls, Georgia.  Finally I transferred to Johnson Bible College in Knoxville, Tennessee.   Through my travels, I made a lot of friends that I will always draw near to my heart.  Hopefully they feel the same with me.
I had a friend in High School that I use to be very close to.  We did a lot of things together and we went through a lot together.   A few years ago I found him, even though he changed his name, and I was very happy.  He talked to me a few times, but then he said, "The times we had was so long ago.... another lifetime."  After that, he cut off all correspondence.  I don't know why.  I don't think I offended him.  Yet, he felt that his past is the past.  That hurt.
Yes friends are special, yet friends can hurt us.  I know I have hurt some of my friends in the past.   If you are someone special in my life and are reading this, I just want to affirm my friendship with you.  Please keep in touch!!!

And even when we brag about SIX TIME Super Bowl Champions - the PITTSBURGH STEELERS - you still call us friends!
