It looks like you found your tribe. And in the process, you found yourself. You continue to amaze, Lorenzo, and I'm so glad your writing reaches out to so many.
I started over with making friends at about the same time, in 2012, only because I moved halfway across the country. I am still connected to the past friends but only see a few, and it is rare that I am back to see them. Adult friendships do seem to fall into those categories of "accidentally came together" and "deliberately made an effort".
