The typical expression of opening Friendship would be something like, “What? You too? I thought I was the only one.” – C.S. Lewis

It’s Day 12 of March of Gratitude and I am grateful for friendships!

Ask someone who knows me well to describe me and they will likely use words like “odd” or “a little strange” or may try to be nicer and say “peculiar” or “unique.” It’s all good; I own my uniqueness and am usually comfortable with it.

It does make for some unusual, but strong and lasting friendships, though! When you find out that your weirdness is shared with other people, it’s that moment (and co-weirdness) that almost always leads to a great friendship. I certainly have had many of those moments.

Here’s to all my friends. I love you all, you weirdos!
