How much time do you set aside to meet a fabulous friend for dinner? As much as you need.
It has nothing to do with how long the act of eating a meal may take or how long (or actually how quickly) it takes for the food to arrive from the kitchen, but how little time you have to spend on each topic of conversation. We are not ashamed to ask each other, "What was I saying?"
Talking starts on topic and somehow ends on something completely unrelated and is interrupted by the soup, or the main course, or the idea of dessert, the actual dessert, the wrapped leftovers and a cup of tea. It has nothing to do with the chewing, tasting or feeling so stuffed you can barely move. It is completely about the company, sharing ideas, theories, experiences and hopes and plans for the future.
It has nothing to do with anything except two people with common interests, rooting each other on in life and a fabulous friendship.
