Cheers to friends and growth
There’s certain times in my week that I love. Those are times that I look forward to, that I realize will someday go away, and that I try to get as much out of as possible. They are my weekly regular times with my friends. Without these times I would know half as much and be twice as bored. They come at different times throughout the week and in various communicative ways.
Date night with Carie.
An early morning phone call from Garret.
A late night drive back home from a basketball game with Jay.
Sitting in St. Arbucks with Jeff.
Sunday early mornings with Steve and Al.
In the office with Billy.
Watching football with Sean, Steve, or Dave.
Text messages from Brian and Brandon.
Regular long distance convos with Clay.
Occasional Tuesday nights with Deric.
Sunday Mornings @ Fellowship.
Game nights with Steve and Priscilla and Jake.
Friday at Finders Pub.
Hang time with my life group
I not only have these times placed in my calendar, I thrive on these times like Popeye to spinach and Tammy Faye to make up. I think it’s important to invest in relationships, and to set aside time to pour into others and to allow others to pour into me. Sure it would be easier and cleaner and require less time to simply keep to myself, but friends are more fun and make me want to be a better person.
