I am going to highlight a major similarity between the two. I know books have this great quality that they can transport us into magical places and make us think of things we never would have. But friends who keep in touch with us also have exactly these qualities.
I can certainly vouch for this, having done trips to exotic places through their social media posts, having bantered with them in person or on Messenger, or having had 'high' quality discussions with them while solving problems from Putin to climate change.. not Maria of The Sound of Music.. that problem, no one can solve!'
My short point is that friends, even if they are in touch on FB, Insta or whatever, regularly, are nourishing influences, and can help you beat the blues everyday! Even better if you are able to meet for wackadoo sessions!
Recommended, highly!
