Friends for Life
Leo and Sam had been best friends since they were children. They grew up on the same street, and spent most days together. They both enjoyed being outdoors and were alike in their love of hiking and fishing.Sam was sure he wanted to attend a university, but Leo liked the idea of working with his hands. He did not want to study after finishing school, so he got a job building houses.
Friends for Life
Leo helped Sam celebrate when Sam was accepted into a top university, but secretly he felt sad that Sam would be leaving for school. The young men promised to communicate even over the long distance.Soon the day came when Sam left for school. Leo helped Sam pack his bags, and gave his friend a nice goodbye hug.
Friends for Life
Sam and Leo thought pen pal letters were ‘old school,’ but received emails from each other daily. Besides, it was difficult to remember an address! Sometimes they only had time in their new, busy lives to send each other a quick joke by text message, but they always tried to show they cared!
Friends for Life
Using their phones, Sam learned that Leo had quickly advanced in his job to Senior Builder and Leo was happy each time Sam delivered a great test result. They even introduced their new girlfriends to each other by video call so they wouldn't be strangers!
Friends for Life
However lonely each felt while Sam was away, when Sam visited home over term breaks, he and Leo fell easily into their old friendship. Communication technology made easy to act like they'd never been apart. They were lucky to have so many ways to communicate available to them!
