If my parents have shaped me to what I am today, my friends have also influenced me.  I have been very fortunate
to have a good set of friends who have always had a positive influence on me.  As I have lived in too many places
and traveled extensively, I have a wide array of friends and I have managed to stay in touch with all of them!!  I
have friends from my preschool days.  They are not only my friends but also a family friend to my parents. They visit
my parents even when I am not there.  Likewise, I have visited my friends' parents and siblings too.
We have a huge group on our email network and we exchange e-mails almost on a daily basis.  We swap stories of the days, tips on careers, new recipes, authors, and whatever is initiated by one of my friends.  W exchange pictures, e-greetings, and send gifts via the Internet.  Some of us have forgotten what the snail mail looks like.  As all my friends are on the Internet
and everyone is into e-mailing and keeping in touch, no one can accuse me of being mushy!  Cos', they are as much to blame
as me.
