A couple of people sent me a link to a recent New York Times article reporting on studies that showed the positive health effects of having a strong circle of friends. It's not the first time I've read about such theories. If they're true, then I'm sure I have had extra time added to my lifespan as a result of the support I've received in the past few months. Even the National Magazine Award that I'm going to receive feels like a special boost from colleagues.
Reading the article made me go and listen to Pete Townsend's great song "A Friend Is a Friend" (lyrics here).
"Deliver your future into the hands of your friend," he writes.
