Having Community to support you is essential to living a healthy happy life! Especially when you are living with chronic illness, you need people around you who you can trust. Often, once the illness has really set in, our instinct is to shut ourselves away. Here is why it’s so important for you to continue to reach out to your friend groups, or find new groups you can join!
Our trip to the Calgary Zoo this week was so much fun! Our homeschooling association planned the trip, so we got up extra early and drove the 3 hours to get to the zoo. It was so worth it!!! We realized we hadn’t been there since 2018! We were excited to see the new polar bear exhibit, and visit some of our old favourites. Come join us as we tour the Calgary Zoo!
What is friendship to you? Friendship means different things to different people, and there are many different categories of friends. A quick Google search describes categories of anywhere from 4 to 14 different kinds! I think I’ll stick to the simplest list of 4 types: Acquaintances, Casual friends, Close friends, and Intimate or lifelong friends. Although each category has different expectations attached to them, it’s important to be able to recognize the behaviour of a true friend, and one who is not.
