Fighting The Friendship Battle

We all fight our own battles everyday. It may be in the classroom, or in the workplace, or even within the four walls of our homes. It may be competition between siblings, meeting a deadline, choosing between right and wrong.

A battle that I've been fighting for some time now is that of keeping in touch with 'old' friends. My Aunt's teasing voice, with a hint of seriouness hidden beneath the surface, comes to mind. She always said that the friends that I'm so attached to in High School will all eventually give up and walk they're own separate ways. Each time she said so, I'd protest ardently.

But with the passing of each day, I wonder if I'm fighting a losing battle...
