  My Blog: Living My Life Out Loud
Hello I'm Rich Brown and this is my personal website and blog. I'm just your simple, average, down to earth, professional, out gay man and aspiring circuit boy, living in Phoenix, Arizona with a few things to say while trying to find my place among all the scary, conservative, religious nuts in this sick and twisted world.

How Many Friends Have Touched Your Life?
It's an interesting question isn't it. When you really think back, how many people have come in and out of your life over the years? Realistically, it's probably many more people then you would actually guess off the top of your head. I've been thinking a lot about friends and friendship lately, and I've been very lucky to have had the privilege of being touched by so many different people, and I've been extremely fortunate to currently have several very great friends in my life.

I went through my photo collection from the past several years and have put together this collage of many of the friends who have touched my life in one way or another. While a lot of these people are still my very close friends today, others have come and gone, but will always hold a special place in my life. These photos are in no particular order.

Going through all these photos once again really brought back many memories and gave me a few good laughs at how much fun I've had with many of these people over the years.

I really am grateful that I've had the opportunity to meet some many wonderful people in my life. My friends all mean the world to me, and I hope that I will continue to meet more amazing people who will touch my life in ways I can't even foresee.

I'm dedicating this post to all of my friends. You know who you are and how much I love you all. :-)
What a touching and wonderful post Rich! Family and friends are the mainstay of my life, and that includes my online buds like you, whom I call "friend" too. Have an excellent weekend!

Cool Post. I too have had lots of friends come and go in my life. But there are always those ones that stay. They become your new family in my opinion. I couldn't imagine my life without them.

What a great post! I'm too lazy to take (and download and process) pics on any sort of regular basis. I need to start.

That's such a great collection : )

I wish I was better about pictures, both taking them and being in them.
