Owls and Orchids

I’m been blessed with some awesome friends. So, the question is obviously rhetorical, advice to me in first person is not appreciated or needed – you’d just be making yourself look stupid really 😀

As it goes I’m generally a fairly good judge of character, and tend to choose my friends carefully based on how I feel about them. My ‘Ass-hole-dar’ has saved me many hours of pain and suffering I’m sure …

Something that I’ve always liked and heard somewhere, but can’t for the life of me remember where :

The best way to have friends is to be one to others.

I don’t always achieve it, but always I try to start off on a good foot. If the other person doesn’t reciprocate, or is rude or unfriendly, then it’s “next”, we didn’t hit it off, nevermind plenty more fish. Screening undesirables is a positive thing, it’s streetwise…
