“Friendship is … a bulwark against stasis, a potential source of creativity and renewal in lives that otherwise narrow with time,” Jennifer Senior wrote in 2022. Rebecca and Elisa “became close more than a decade ago, spotting in each other the same traits that dazzled outsiders: talent, charisma, saber-tooth smarts. To Rebecca, Elisa was ‘impossibly vibrant’ in a way that only a 30-year-old can be to someone who is 41. To Elisa, Rebecca was a glamorous and reassuring role model, a woman who through some miracle of alchemy had successfully combined motherhood, marriage, and a creative life,” Senior wrote. But, slowly, the two friends were torn apart by their differences. Were friendships always so fragile? “I suspect not,” Senior continued. “But we now live in an era of radical individual freedoms. All of us may begin at the same starting line as young adults, but as soon as the gun goes off, we’re all running in different directions; there’s little synchrony to our lives … Yet it’s precisely because of the atomized, customized nature of our lives that we rely on our friends so very much … What makes friendship so fragile is also exactly what makes it so special. You have to continually opt in. That you choose it is what gives it its value.” https://lnkd.in/e8uax_6v
