Had lunch at a hole-in-the-wall Cajun place in Deep Ellum that I am sure I have walked past a million times, but never gone in. The food was good, had catfish.
During lunch with a good friend of mine, we began reminiscing about the past year. What had we learned, what we had done, favorite things, least favorite things, topics like that.
The conversation eventually got to friendships and relationships and how they work and don't work. Had a fantastic talk about such things and I believe that we are now closer friends because of it.
The reason I choose to write about this is to encourage you to just say what you want to say. Just say it. Nine times out of ten the other person may have no idea what you're thinking or feeling.
It may seem trivial to bring little things up that frustrate or bother you, but isn't transparency and being open what friendships are about? I believe that if you are wanting to intentionally grow and foster a friendship past just being general acquaintances, this is vital.
So say it. You may feel stupid, or childish, or like you're being dumb, but take that risk. Take the risk to say what's on your heart and mind.
Below are some of the shots I was able to acquire. Enjoy.
