## Resource

Listen to episode 1106 of the Inspirational Living podcast: The Nature of Friendship & the Spiritual Life. Adapted from the book Friendship by Hugh Black. Inspirational Podcast Excerpt : Life is bigger than any relationship, and covers more ground. The circles of life may intersect, and part of each be common to the other, but there will be an area on both sides exclusive to each. And even if it were possible for the circles to be concentric, it could hardly be that the circumference of the two could be the same. One would be, almost without a doubt, of larger radius than the other. --------------------- Get our popular 3 books of Life Lessons in paperback and e-book on Amazon.
