I'm fortunate, in being involved in a Fellowship that forces many folks, that would otherwise, never have anything to do with each other, together.
I have made many friends. A lot of these friendships are decades old. Many of these folks are ones that have huge differences from me, in things like politics and religion; yet we've still got each others' backs, and it is always a genuine pleasure to meet.
That's why work is a great fulcrum for friendship. A shared task/values thing is way to find common ground.
If we don't have work, one of my most common suggestions, is to get involved in nonprofit/volunteer work.
