When longtime friends grow in different spiritual directions

My best friend and I both went through spiritual awakenings this year but we're going in completely different directions and suddenly we can't relate to each other's path and twenty years of friendship feels like it's hanging by a thread. We keep trying to share what we're discovering but it's like we're speaking different languages now.

What we've seen

The sacred journey can sometimes lead us away from those we love most, creating a loneliness that feels like betrayal of both friendship and faith.
