RE: TIL That Crisis Are The Best Filter For Friends
I hope you have found that a good number of your friends are still around and still supporting you.
Everyone has to go through stuff at some point. And what goes around comes around.
I have friends that I speak to very rarely, but as soon as there is a problem it's me they run to - because they know I'll help, no matter what it is.
I do it because that's the way I am, and I know that my friends are like that too. If I need them they will be there, but we don't need to live in each other's pockets to be friends.
I would much rather have friends like that, than ones you see every day, expect on the day you really need them.
Kia kaha - be strong, and you will get though this.
Thanks for the nice words and support. Yes, I experienced both facets: people staying and people going. In this specific situation, I was surprised to see a lot of people supporting me and I'm grateful for that. Those from whom I had expectations didn't really follow through, but that's just life :)
You from NZ or something?
hehe Yes I am. I live in Wellington. Have you been out this way?
Yeap, I've been there three times, between 2008 and 2011, beautiful country. Mainly stayed in Auckland but also Christchurch (paragliding in Sumner, very nice). I even wanted to move there but it didn't play out. I miss it :)
Glad you enjoyed my little slice of paradise ;-)
Maybe if things work out on Steemit, I'll host a SteemFest and it will give you a good reason to come back ;-)
Now that will be something! :)
