## Resource

Two boys grow up as best friends. They share their childhood, their classrooms, their dreams. The bond carries them through their teens, their young adult years, even into their thirties. Then something happens. A disagreement. A rupture. And they stop speaking. Years pass. Decades. They grow old and, by some twist of fate, find themselves in the same nursing home—still silent, still distant. Their children plead with them: “You were once inseparable. You don’t have many years left. Why not reconcile?” One of them responds, “If I speak to him, he’ll think he was right.” They ask, “What did you fight about?” Neither of them remembers.
