The Kindness of Sharing News

"One of the most beautiful qualities of true friendship is to understand and to be understood."
~ Lucious Annaeus Seneca

A close friend from college called a couple of weeks ago to share that a mutual friend was going to have an operation, but that our friend was not ready to talk to many people about it.  Since then, my friend has updated me on our friend's progress on an almost daily basis.  She went to visit our friend and sent a photo of the two of them, and shared how well our friend is doing.  There are so many ways to be a good friend and I realized how keeping other friends informed when a friend is going through a difficult time is an important way to be a friend.
