Fair weathered friends...

It's amazing how many people really are only fair weather friends now-a-days. I guess my trimming of the fat over the last year wasn't really as close as it could have been. I recently made an actual cut of a "friend" that I should have cut a long time ago. Man does it feel good. I really should have done this sooner. It was easier to deal with than I thought it was going to be. But then again, maybe that was the timing of it. She was able to move on to her next victim, I mean best friend, and I'm able to move on w/my life. It was a less expensive lesson learned than the one w/my ex...but it was worth every cent. Now I have things to look back on and learn from...and try not to ever let happen again.
As my boss would say...I've lost some more weight! lol And I can really feel it this time around! Not that I couldn't before...but maybe now it was the last of the heavy loads to be taken off at this point in my life.
I read a quote earlier that I'll leave you with, I feel as though it really sums up some of my philosophies on life:

"Happiness DOES NOT mean everything's perfect, it just means you've decided to look past the imperfections."
