Quality versus Quantity
Friendship is a beautiful thing that needs to be nurtured. Our friends ultimately become our chosen family and we become like the people that we surround ourselves with.
I have never been particularly keen to be around a large group of people. My heart is full when i have the opportunity to have an intimate dinner or Braai with those that i love, to me it is genuinely important to give my undivided attention to the person sitting across from me at the table.
The quality of your friends is immensely important, the quantity does not matter one bit. Rather invest in a handful of friends. What is the use of spending time with people that really has no substance or depth. It is not too often in life that we meet people who really are our soul connections. Hold onto these people and nurture these friendships. Treasure the people that you are able to sit in comfortable silence with.
I am a firm believer that you should only spend time with those that will lift you higher, those who support your dreams and especially those that really wants to know how you are doing. You can never be too busy to ask how the ones you love are doing, that in itself is a deal breaker for me.
As iron sharpens iron, so a friend sharpens a friend.
CHOOSE WISELY.
