A very old friend called me for the first time in a long time. The last time we spoke was over a year ago when I was going through my personal storm. She's a family friend who is close to my parents and perhaps it was they who asked for her to call me or perhaps it was a New Year's resolution to reach out to old friends, and I happen to be at the top of that call list. Regardless, it was a comforting voice to hear because I know she truly cares. It wasn't a full "coming to Jesus" phone call, but she reminded me of certain things to maintain and to focus my life on. She was gracious and warm in her speech, and I'm lucky to have a friend from the past to reach out to me. Hearing her voice reminds me that I have family and friends that care, both old and new. I can only say to myself that I'm one helluva lucky guy.
