The basis of a close friendship begins with trust, but the most difficult part of that is not judging your closest friends. When I was in my 20s and 30s, I had only two close friends. When one of them told me that he was leaving his wife for another woman, I told him that I disagreed with his decision, that this it was not fair and that we were finished as friends. I am now 80, and the one thing I have learned about friendship is, as Pope Francis once said: “Who am I to judge?”
I don’t judge my friends today, I just ask: “What can I do to help you?” If I had had that same attitude in my 20s and 30s, I would still probably be close with my friend who remarried. Jerome Koncel
