When you think of friends,you tend to think of people who

have been in your for a long time.But there’s another kind of friend— one that appears at a particular moment.

The first such friend I remember is a Russian girl I met in

London at the age four.That year, my mother had remarried and we'd be moving to the UK.Everything was chan-goning to me. The Russian girl and I were the two oldest in our school.She spoke no Englishi;I,no Russian. We communicated by trying to go beyond the other -at drawing,at games, even at eating. Our contests gave me something I could control.And maybe I gave her the same. In my eight,1 grade, there was Jenny, who had a small horse named Red Wing. The eighth grade was a terrible.year. We both knew it, but we didn’t talk about it. We spent most of our time with Red Wing. On cold winter days, we’d go out and take turns riding and walk. She left in the ninth grade and I missed her.

To juie,I'll be forever grateful. We met on the beach in New Jersey one afternoon. She was there with her twin boys,the only other children there,and they were about the same age as my daughter. Gradually,the children approached each other and soon were digging holes together. And we began to talk. She lived in the little beach town. I lived alone with my daughter in a big apartment a block from the beach. My husband had taken off for North Da- kota,leaving me to think about what to do next. Suddenly,there was someone I could talk to. For the next couple of weeks,we met at the beach with the children,and I would go home with her. Meeting Julie filled my despairing heart.

Such friends as these often arrive when your own life is off—balance,and will support you till the world settles on its axis(轴线)once again.

In 2020,Kim Stemple,a special—education teacher,found herself in a Boston hospital being treated for one of several diseases she had been diagnosed with. The normally lively Stemple was naturally getting very depressed. And then a friend gave her a medal.

Before she got too sick to exercise,Stemple had been a marathon runner. The medal came from a racing partner who had just finished a half marathon in Las Vegas and hoped the keepsake(纪念品)would act as a kind of replacement of refreshment.

After Stemple hung the medal from her hospital IV pole,other patients said they wanted medals too. That got Stemple thinking. “A medal is a simple way to give a positive mes_ sage,”she told pilotonline. com. And so was born her charity-We Finish Together,which collects medals from strangers一runners, dancers,swimmers,singers, and even spelling bee winners—and donates them to all sorts of people in need.

Receivers have included hospital patients9 homeless people,and old soldiers. Part of the process involves the donor writing a personalized note on the ribbon(丝带).“This gives them a connection to someone,\says Stemple. “If they receive a medal, they know someone cares. ”

A simple medal really importan?Yes,says Joan Musarra,who suffers from a serious illness.“I opened my package containing my new medal and the notes of possitive,warm thoughts.I was deeply moved,“she wrote to Stemple.“At that moment,I was sitting on much to me to feel that I am not alonne.” 28.Before Stemple was diagnosed with serious diseases, what kind of person is she?
