How Christian Science helps me with friendships
One day, while I was out for a walk, I was thinking about past friendships I felt I’d messed up or friends I don’t talk to anymore. I felt a strong urge to text them. Because it seems like there are a lot of highs and lows in high school, I wanted to tell these friends how things had been going for me and ask how they were doing.
I’ve struggled with friendships and connecting with peers my age my entire life, so I’ve sometimes felt isolated and alone. But in this case, I felt inspired to reach out to my friends.
Some never replied to my texts, but others wrote back and said they were so grateful to me for checking in. They told me they missed being with me, and I said I missed being with them, too.
