Drew the true nature of a thing is found in the sound it makes.

a high pitched wail is untrustworthy, too childish and immature.

beware low sounds as well; they embody fear of rejection.

achieve a happy medium.

optic discretion why is it that we always have to talk about YOUR problems ... the least you can do is to have the decency to listen to me sometimes ... friendship goes both ways, it isn't something that's going to be based entirely on YOU.

friendship is a two sided relationship, where you receive and give. all you have to do is listen to me once in awhile. you can't blow me off every time i have a problem and come running when something breaks in your idealistic world.

i'm not asking too much, am i?
