We had been friends. Till we had a fight, and cut each other
off from our lives. I distanced myself from most of our mutual friends. There
had been good times, but I put them behind me. “Life is complicated enough
without excess baggage”, I convinced myself. It suited me fine.
Months later, she reached out. “Can we put all that behind
us, and start afresh?”
I wanted to ignore it. Her. But made me take her hand. There
were no apologies, no recriminations. Just a desire to start afresh.
I am glad she reached out. Friends keep us afloat.

Natasha - They do, indeed. I give you so much credit for opening your life and your heart to her again. That's one more strand in the net that keeps you safe.
Yes...friends offer a lifeline in a hectic and sometimes brutal world.
Congrats on your new old friend
Hugs
