Enthusiasm

Well it’s the weekend and I have way too much free time so of course I’m spending it in self reflection. I’ve been thinking a lot more about myself, my goals, my friends and today’s big dilemma is again a deep seeded part of my social programming that I need to change. The infamous “they” always say “When it comes to friends: Quality over Quantity”. I think in a way this is true later in life, but I think when your life changes enough that your base of friends changes artificially due to change in work, a move, end of school, etc, I think you can’t focus on the small quantity you may have left. The problem is that you become so focused on that small quality you don’t meet more people and start to ignore faults in the small quantity you have, artificially creating a sense of quality. In summary I think that I need to switch to a quantity way of thinking at least for a while because if I gather I large group of friends I can selectively choose to maintain a good number of quality ones. Again no serious insult to my current friends, it’s just that sometimes we’re in the mood to do different things and there are things in life that are just more fun to share with good friends.
