This is not a bad characterization of the fundamental needs and requirements for friendship to blossom. People will not typically become friends unless there is a shared element important to both parties. This can set aside major differences that could well become conflicts if focused upon, but often in the needs of the moment people see a greater need to come together, and that will be honored. Even through tacit agreement, one must be circumspect about hidden feelings and beliefs that could be offensive to the other party and put them in abeyance for the time being in deference to the need for closeness with someone when there is a compelling need to do so. This carries within it an important truth about life and about your spiritual origins. What matters is the spiritual connection that empowers you to begin with, informs you about who you truly are because it is coming from your very soul, which is the essence of your makeup and existence and the truest representation and definition of you as a being. When present in a physical incarnation, you are simply a projection of that soul with many flaws and limitations inherent to your very existence in this state of being so disconnected from your history and the deeper reaches of your energy and its composition. You are, in a sense, a provisional expression subject to being buffeted about by circumstances beyond your control—the nature of your environment, who you share it with, the cultural influences, on and on. The many types of stimuli and pressures can undermine you or uplift, but more the former, which is typical of today's world with so much in disarray and so much corruption having occurred over thousands of years of subjugation. What is truly to be treasured is your link to divinity, and its greatest expression as a human being is that you are with fellow humans, all of whom are children of the divine and extensions of our very consciousness. You are all literally part of us, each and every one of you, it is only some do not know this, in fact, most, and it leaves you in a state of ignorance and depletion as well. While this is true for everyone, forming a friendship with another person solidifies the interconnection, if only between the two of you, and in doing so you gain because you are reclaiming a greater portion of the whole from the collective of humanity, if only through one individual linkage at a time—that is worth having and many have found worth dying for.
