Thinking Outloud

My best friend and I have been friends for nearly 15 years now.  Although we don’t see one another nearly enough, we do stay in constant contact with one another through e-mails and phone calls.  After one of our hour long phone calls, it got me to thinking about how much are lives are alike especially when it comes to our oldest sons.  Her son is 20 and mine is 18.  Both have gotten in a lot of trouble growing up and both have gotten in trouble with the law when they got older.  Another thing that they apparently have in common is that they both haven’t really learned from their mistakes yet.

I love my friend dearly, but it’s times like this that I really wish that we didn’t have so much in common.  I guess the good thing in all this, is that because we are both going through similar situations, we can relate to one another and we can be there for one another.  I really don’t know what I would do without her.
