A belated thank you to everyone who wished me a happy birthday. Your heartwarming messages reminded me of an article I read recently: Ancient writers from Aristotle to Cicero to Michel de Montaigne described friendship as the pre-eminent human institution. You can go without marriage, or justice, or honour, but friendship is indispensable to life. Lovers face each other, but friends stand side-by-side, facing the world — often working on its behalf. On my birthday I should really be thanking you, my friends, for being with me during triumphs and tribulations. I should be thanking you for challenging my oft ill-conceived ideas and for encouraging me to strive towards better things.
