Celebrate... friendships
(10/23/20 4:00am)
Ten years ago today, my best friend Drew Everson passed away during our senior year at Duke University. Unfortunately, this anniversary of that awful day comes at a time where so many of our communities have had to deal with the sad realization that life is often hard and even terrible. This year, loss comes in many forms, varying from the loss of "normal" collegiate existence all the way to the loss of our loved ones. Too many forms. However, life goes on, and even in these most brutal of times (indeed, especially in these most brutal times), it is important to recognize how lucky we all are to have formed friendships that allow us to put one foot in front of the other, even when it is hard.
