One in a Million

Today is one of those days where I hate everybody*.




*Everybody meaning despite a handful of friends and family who don't disappoint.



I have finally realized how the term "one in a million" pertains to my friends (I know...sooooo naive). And now I get why I am so cynical when it comes to trying to make friends. I have very few who actually pull through and the others are too selfish and lack common courtesy to waste my time with them.

Instead of complaining, I am just lucky I have those handful of people. The flakey ones make me realize how lucky I am to have them. I'd take 1 good friend than 100 acquaintances.

Here's some quotes I felt relate-able today:


"A real friend is one who walks in when the rest of the world walks out."
~ Walter Winchell
 

"You can make more friends in two months by becoming interested in other people than you can in two years by trying to get other people interested in you."
~ Dale Carnegie




Friends are like melons; shall I tell you why? To find one good you must one hundred try.
~ Claude Mermet
