First started in 1935 by the US Congress, National Best Friends Day for appreciating friends and spending quality time with them has been a great way to improve your life. Or, if you don’t currently have a best friend then take deliberate action to find one. How? Perhaps, today’s haiku will help:

Decrease loneliness –

be a best friend to others –

friendship is healthy.

Note: recent psychology studies indicate that loneliness increased across the world due to the COVID-19 pandemic. See these sites for more information on the studies and today’s holiday cures:
