It's practically getting harder and harder to maintain genuine friendships as you get older, because people prioritize their family, they move around, they have personal issues to deal with; if you are lucky to have friends that fill your days with positive energy and gratitude, treasure them, make an effort to keep in touch, show some flexibility of schedule, don't let them go because you are "too busy and tired," at some point, you are not going to be that busy anymore, and sadly realize that no one cares about you, because you didn't care enough when they did. #orangebook
