"Me, I'm a part of your circle of friends And we notice you don't come around Me, I think it all depends on you Touching ground with us" These are the lyrics from a song by Edie Brickell & New Bohemians, from their 1988 album Shooting Rubberbands at the Stars. I often think of this song in the measure of today's society and think about what social media is doing to the model of being friends. We can go out and socialize with friends or go to the park but when we snap, Instagram or facebook those moments online it seems like we try to add on that to be everything to everyone. I more and more look for ways to be everything to those few circles of friends to draw strength from knowing that when they are needed, they will be there, and their friendship will be everything to me in return.
