My best friend’s dad regularly travels to various countries for work. Every time he comes home, he would bring my friend unique keychains from each place he has just visited. When we were still in high school, my friend hanged her keychains on a long rope that ran across one wall of her bedroom. Her collection grew over the years.

Now that we are both working, I also try to buy unique keychains when I go to various cities. These I send to my friend who continues to treasure each and every keychain in her possession. It makes me happy to see her happy. I guess that is simply what friendship is all about.
