Ramblings of a Creative

“I had a friend ask me to borrow money recently, and then he turned around and acted like it had been a gift. That really hurt me, because I’d given that money from my heart. I actually put a thumbtack on that day in my calendar. That was the day that I decided to narrow my inner circle. Now I focus all my energy on the people who want nothing from me but my time. Mainly my daughter, and the kids that I coach on my soccer team.”
