2019: Three Hundred and Fifty Three

I’ve spent the day today with my childhood best friend. I think there’s a lot of joy in our friendship – because a lot goes unsaid, but recognized, a feeling I don’t get with several people. The fact that we’ve kept in touch is a credit to both of us, and the fact that we’ve kept in touch despite diverging interests is perhaps testament to how early childhood memories are those you latch onto the most, and how much of a role they play in shaping identity.
