I’ve truly struggled with the amount of long-distance friendships that have fallen to the wayside over the years, often not because of my own efforts to keep them going. Today’s set of quotes are ones I found comfort in surrounding this subject and agree with wholeheartedly…
“Long-distance friendships are like wind to a fire; it puts out the small ones, but inflames the big ones.” (Roger de Rabutin)
“The people who are meant to be in your life will always gravitate back towards you, no matter how far they wander.” (Unknown)
“It is easy to have a sense of connectedness through social media, but long-distance friendships, even close ones, may require more conscious effort to maintain. Seek out opportunities for “friendship renewal” through face-to-face time when possible. Making an effort beyond social media is what keeps a long-distance friendship intact.” (Jeffrey A Hall)
“Distance is just a test of how far friendship can travel.” (Unknown)
“Distance sometimes lets you know who is worth keeping, and who is worth letting go.” (Lana Del Rey)
“I’ve come to see that true friendships meant to endure the test of time and even distance comes down to one thing, both are willing to go the extra mile for each other.” (Andrew Arthur Dawson)
Peace, love, light, and joy,
