It is seeing it for what it is - understanding that friendship, good friendship, will be impermanent - change is inevitable ... for me this means being willing to go through whatever it brings - remaining open to the sadness, as well as the happiness. The alternate is to not try and live less fully somehow - it helps me to remember that we will not always get what we want and we will make mistakes, as will others.
