What would we do without them? And I can relate to your up / down friend in the pew. I always hope they're getting what they need there whether I sit with them or not.

Interestingly, I am sometimes the lone wolf in my family, too, when going to my church every Sunday. Two Sundays ago, I sat down next to a lady I've known for years and whom I sit next to every now and again. This lady is up and down, meaning she's smiley and polite to me some Sundays, and pretty sour others. After her most recent bout of unprovoked sourness, I decided I'd sit elsewhere the following Sunday. Lol. She falls into the "friend for a reason" category. My friendship with her has taught me to appreciate her good moods and keep my distance when she's sour. It has also taught me that I don't have to sit next to her at Mass just because I know her! :-) I enjoy sitting in the Lord's light too much to let a sometimes-Debbie-Downer spoil it.<br /><br />Always appreciate a good article on friendship, since friendships affect women profoundly in life.<br /><br />Be well, and enjoy your Sunday!
