Happy Birthday Joshua! Wishing you everything cozy and nice for your birthday!
Excerpt adapted from Torquatus section:
"...the earliest meetings and associations and tendencies towards the establishment of familiarity do arise on account of pleasure, yet when experience has gradually produced intimacy, then affection ripens to such a degree...that...friends are loved in themselves and for their own sake."
-- and for the sense of mental pleasure that arises when thinking of the friend. ![]()
