I've learned to set my own goals and to hold back and not give (and give and give) my time beyond what is required to meet my goals.

I'm selfish with my friendship, I believe my relationships with friends are investments, that they require my care, my time, my energy and adaptability; and I only have so much of those things to give. I have a lot of aquaintanceships, and they can be very fun; but my real deep friendships are few, they are for life and they are very meaningful.

Great question!


Give me three ways you get involved
Physically do whatever's required.
Give advice.
Send money.

GM 3 things you always appreciate
