Friendship -- Bread for the Journey reaffirms our faith in humanity. So many things are transitory, friendship is a unique, universal thread that binds us together. We need the knowledge that somebody is there for us, especially during these uncertain times. This book is a testament to the goodness and caring of people. It is real, it is human. Friendship is a positive experience the world needs now, today. Contributors from different countries and diverse occupations and ages have freely expressed just how much this relationship means to them and how great a part it has played in their lives.
