I rarely drink. Purely because I fail to see the obsession our society has with alcohol. However, if it became a law that everyone should have a signature drink mine would surely be a Cosmopolitan. Let me explain.
When we were young we made friends with almost anybody. Human, animal, insect, imaginary friend- children have a way of growing attached to just about anything. Friendships were what we lived for, it was primarily the reason we went to school- to see and be with our friends. For some there was that one special friend who just ‘got you’. They were there when the class bully poured sand from the sand pit down your pants and they were the one who was there to console you when you peed yourself publically in the school assembly. If that friend still happens to be in your life now, then you are fortunate. Extremely fortunate. Because if we’re honest, the friendships we had when we were five and six years old are – worlds apart from the social circles we find ourselves in today.
