I don't know why the friendships don't last. If I did I could work hard at changing that very reason. All I know is that each time I think I have found someone who I can trust they seem to leave my life as quickly as they entered it. Maybe my idea of frienship is not one that others subscribe to. Who knows.
As for the good book if I sit on my derriere reading much longer I think I'll fuse into the settee
