Telling personal stories of your life is a great way to pass on truths you have learned in the process of living that life. Friends lighten your life, and add that 'Zest' of life to your day. Friends come in all sizes and shapes. They come with all kinds of personal experiences from their own lives. Sharing is great with friends as it expands your view of life. Having friends is healthy, physically and mentally, as well as adding to the value of the spiritual life.
"Guest friendship" was a relation of temporary hospitality. When visiting guests departed, a dish would be broken in half, one piece being given the departing friend so that it would serve as a suitable introduction for a third party who might arrive on a later visit. It was customary for guests to pay their way by telling tales of their travels and adventures. The storytellers of olden times became so popular that the mores eventually forbade their functioning during either the hunting or harvest seasons.
