i got that this morning from my RN-yahoo group - but i cut the jesus part because i am not a religious freak ;-)
May this encourage you always.
Don't spend major time with minor people. If there are people in
your life that continually disappoint you, break promises, stomp on
your dreams, too judgmental, have different values and don't have
your back during difficult times...that is not a friend. Remember
what your elders used to say, "Birds of a feather flock together". If
you're an eagle, DON'T HANG AROUND THE CHICKENS: CHICKENS CAN'T FLY!
To have a friend, be a friend.
Sometimes in life as you grow, your friends will ether grow or go.
Surround yourself with people who reflect values, goals interests
and lifestyle. Over the years my phone book has changed because I
changed for the better. At first you think you're going to be alone,
but after a while new people show up in your life that make your
life so much sweeter and easier to endure.
