Have you ever met someone, and it felt like you've known them for years?

Somehow, in a strange place, when we're exposed to new experiences and new people, a new friendship may spark between unlikely people. That's how I feel about this crew right here!!!

According to one of the longest-running surveys of all time, the Harvard Study of Adult Development, close relationships greatly impact lifetime happiness and wellness – outweighing factors such as money, fame, IQ, or even genes. 

Having a close group of people in your corner is vital to how you relate to the world – and yet, it's all too easy to think of friendships as yet another task. You think, 'oh, I'll hang out with so-and-so when I have more time.' Inevitably, that time never arrives."

FRIENDSHIPS ARE A CENTRAL PILLAR OF SELF-CARE – HERE'S HOW TO MAKE THE MOST OF THEM: 

MAKE TIME FOR CONNECTIONS THAT COUNT. "The friends we made at a later age are often very deep," explains psychotherapist Karin. "We know better who we are, what we stand for in life, and what matters to us, and we quickly recognize when we meet 'someone like ourselves."

INDULGE IN THE SPIRIT OF GROUP TRAVEL. In your 30s and 40s – many people splinter away, due to family distractions or job commitments. But among these challenges lies a powerful and often overlooked antidote: travel. Buy the ticket and go, girl. 

WELCOME ADVENTURE-BORN FRIENDSHIPS. Try to connect with people from all walks of life, and break out of your comfort zone together. It's the thrill of a shared passion or a new experience that sets into a play a series of small, tight-knit friendships. 

Thanks, @annabwrites, for this article and my first introduction to @flashpack.
