The Creative Power of Friendship

Friendship is unnecessary, like philosophy, like art…It has not survival value; rather it is one of those things that give value to survival. – C.S. Lewis

You can form a friendship anywhere you look. In the midst of a city, on a subway, waiting for a cup of coffee. Even on the edge of nowhere. That’s how it felt when we moved from a large Midwestern city to a town of two hundred if you counted the chickens and the dogs.
