That handful of friends

At different stages of our life, friends come and go. Sometimes, even BFF at no longer around even when we wanted to as we move into courtship, marriage and setting up a family.  However, we make new ones along the way. 

In my case, I felt the number of friends are almost constant at different stages in life.  A male friend might leave but another will come into your life. Someone passed away and a new character will appear. It is almost like we are programmed or it could be just our nature , personality and the limited time we had each day.  We choose to believe in the latter that the character decides the way we work, make friends and have fun. 

Time to recap whomever that is important left and who came into your life.
