Something to think about during the holiday season

There are two categories of friendship: those in which people are enlivened by each other and those in which people must be enlivened to be with each other: In the first category one clears the decks to be together. In the second one looks for an empty space in the schedule.

From Approaching eye level, by Vivian Gornick.

Traduction approximative:
Il y a deux cat�gories d’amiti�: celle qui nous revitalise et celle pour laquelle on doit d�j� se sentir en forme pour pouvoir en profiter. Pour la premi�re cat�gorie, on annule d’autres rendez-vous pour arriver � se rencontrer. Pour la deuxi�me, on cherche simplement un trou dans son agenda parmi les autres activit�s.
