#21: Friendships: Creating and Sustaining Them

The Gargoyles

Relationships as an umbrella term can take many forms. Exploring them as such could offer us clarity into certain individual aspects, and the same goes when exploring the subcategory of friendships. There isn't an exact science or timeline to follow that could tell us when these deeper bonds get to develop. As we've seen it, it's usually an accidental measure that tends to happen within specific contexts. 3 long time friends sit in the recording booth and analyze this phenomenon. Taking a look at different types of "entry points" that tend to plant the seed of potential. Developing friendships and sustaining them requires mental work and energy, but the benefits of letting people in can go as far as expanding parts of own we love and parts we weren't aware existed. The 3 of them share what they've seen work for them and others, and contextualize it to this cyber-connected pandemic reality, where communities can develop without the need to leave the comfort of our homes. They also explore how the topic of love factors in as one of the pillars for establishing long terms bonds. Just like any other form of relationships friendships are complex, becoming aware of the components that make it, can help us strengthen what works and re-structure what doesn't.
