are your friends needed if you want to grow spirtually?
in a recent conservation i had with a friend we discussed the idea that "if i was not able to have deep conservation with my friends i will become stagnant in my relationship with the lord". the point of this was that as i have withdrawn from friends and the deep conservation we used to have i have grown very stagnant. i understand why he feels this way...he has seen me slip down the road called apathy. i feel like the lost boy that i once was years ago, only now i am a husband and spiritual leader, and i feel terrible. the biggest problem is that the people that i care enough about to not draw away from are not here or i have grown so apathetic that i no longer even want to talk to them. this new rut brings nothing shocking only discouraging. for now i will continue to try and make effort in talking to my friends.
there is truly so much more that i would love to say but i cannot seem to even think of how i feel.
is apathy the new religion of my generation?

Sometimes, it seems it is.
There is no reason why you and I shouldn't talk more. Maybe even weekly. I could use it! I mean, we're married and shit now. This is serious.
I'm serious.

it doesnt have to be. i believe you do need fellowship to grow spiritually in most cases, and you need close friends to be apathetic with. i wish we talked more, i honestly do, and i apologize for not calling as much. i hate growing more occupied by useless things rather than using the time to call a good friend.
We need people. But, you just got married which is the greatest thing. So, if you pull away from others maybe that is OK since you are now in a new world. Just a thought from an older dude who deals with apathy quite a bit. Of course, you can always call me if you want--or not.
