Re-evaluating friendships!

I sat down to really evaluate who my friends are. I do have a lot of them. I always look for meaningful connections with friends. 

Recently, I saw this video by Jordan Peterson. This made me think about how I am as a friend. 

Can I be a friend where, I can be told bad news to? Do I listen to them, and not make remarks and say how stupid they are, and take the conversation to what happened to me in a similar situation? 

Do I find happiness in my friend’s success and help them celebrate? Without being envious and jealous? I did some self evaluation and noticed that some areas needed work. 

I am trying to get my life together and also see how I can be a better friend. I don’t want anyone on my way while I’m trying to make a big change in my life, and I don’t want to be on their way when they are fighting their own battles. It’s great to have people who lend you support, it’s also great to give your support to them. But, never be a burden to them and don’t enable them to be a burden to you as well.
