A growing body of research supports that point: Healthy, stable friendships can protect against depression and anxiety, increase life satisfaction, extend longevity, and improve health metrics like blood pressure and body mass index. Those who don't have strong social connections, meanwhile, have an elevated risk of heart disease and stroke, Type 2 diabetes, addiction, and dementia. While many people assume it's the number of friends that counts, research indicates that quality is more important-and having even a small selection of close friends is a stronger predictor of happiness than having lots of casual connections.
Yet often people who feel disconnected focus on making new friends instead of nurturing existing connections. "There can be this feeling of 'I need to look elsewhere. I need to start a whole new circle of friends," says Miriam Kirmayer, a clini I psychologist who studies the science of friendship. "For many people, it's helpful to think about the friendships we already have in our lives. Even if they feel a little stale, there are ways we can revive them."

SHARING GRIEF AMID WAR
Spring and early summer are difficult times for both Israelis and Palestinians. Israeli Jews move from Passover, the holiday of freedom, to Holocaust Memorial Day, to Memorial Day for Fallen Soldiers and Victims of Terror, to the triumphant celebrations of Independence Day. The days pass with rituals intended to give us a shared meaning as a society and to inculcate and frame Israel's official narrative.
