Hanging out at Eric’s
Yesterday I was reminded how much friends matter. I have been so caught up playing in my work sandbox that I have neglected spending time with my best friend Eric. Today I drove down to see him and we just had a great time. Seeing my friend is empowering and encouraging. He reminds me of all the years and things I have been through and I do the same for him. The following are some reasons (out of about a million) why going to hang out at Eric’s is awesome (sidenote, my friend Eric Stefani is the artist who created my character in the header of this blog):
- We always eat at a great restaurant.
- Sometimes we record music in his studio.
- We talk about “meaning of life” type stuff.
- He gives me great ideas like that I should write a script with a soundtrack.
- I miss my family and return to them with fresh eyes.
- I get to enjoy the sites and fare of Pasadena
- I see Eric’s amazing new art.
- We reminisce.

Friends are awesome, aren’t they? They are the people who like you who don’t even have to! Every time I spend time with my good friends, it’s empowering, like you said. You no longer are fitting into a role like "mom" or "customer service rep" or anything like that. I can be just "me". Sometimes I think we all forget that we need to be "me" once in a while….

Yes. We should cultivate relationships like that. It’s not always convenient but it’s so important to go through life with friends like that.
