You have your loving wife with you. It seems that at the end of the day, family are the only ones that really matter.Veronhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11227419214058818362noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14523930.post-18900751487559031812008-06-24T15:14:00.000+08:002008-06-24T15:14:00.000+08:00Hi Joe,<BR/><BR/>Yeah, I know. Being more successful will not make me having better friends. But I just want to prevent myself being put in a weaker position where the 'friends' can put me down. It hurts more to be laughed at by people whom you used to regard them as friends.Cobalt Paladinhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16132478811872405144noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14523930.post-43199349643575228102008-06-24T15:11:00.000+08:002008-06-24T15:11:00.000+08:00Hi DK,<BR/><BR/>When I drive... you'll be the first to know... ;pCobalt Paladinhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16132478811872405144noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14523930.post-58488529205312075942008-06-24T14:48:00.000+08:002008-06-24T14:48:00.000+08:00People don't drift apart, they just become more of who they are.<BR/><BR/>Applies for everyone - friends, family and significant others.<BR/><BR/>It took success for one of your friends, and relative failure for another for their true selves to appear.<BR/><BR/>Being more successful yourself isn't going to make you better friends that match your own ideals or outlook. It'll just bring different ones. Many friends will come and others will go, and hopefully, there will be a few which will stay throughout. That's just part and parcel of life.<BR/><BR/>I've recently chanced upon this article on friendship before, and although its harsh, I think the overall message is true: http://www.stevepavlina.com/blog/2004/12/are-your-friends-an-elevator-or-a-cage/Joe Gohhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07594815802479311665noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14523930.post-12318818813035884492008-06-24T12:54:00.000+08:002008-06-24T12:54:00.000+08:00You buy car liao issit?
