An Open Letter

One of my friends that I was talking with told me how she firmly believes in relentless optimism, and even though a part of me disagrees, I think she is correct. I think specifically with the goal of finding a friend group in person that feels like my tribe, that’s been something where I’ve been pretty doomer about. But I do think that this is something that will take time, and additionally I feel like I am ahead of the curve here. Not counting the months where I was in a very intense relationship, I feel like I have made at least one lasting friendship each month. Not everyone I meet is going to be that ride or die person or my tribe, but definitely an important and valuable part of the life I am trying to build. Also remember how the closest friends I have are not at all the people I thought I would get along with. Have an open mind. And have faith that it will work because it will.
