Counting

Thank you to all who offered to help me sort out and unload things so I could move.  You are true friends. 

I have been thinking a lot about friends.  And acquaintances.  The latter are a waste of time.  They don't add much to your life.  Why did I expend any energy helping them? 

But the less than a handful who offered to do what they could, wow oh wow.  I am more than moved.  But I already KNEW who they were.  I am more than grateful. 

Looking back over my life, there have been few helpers.  Truly.  I think of all the peeps I have lent a hand to.  Was it ever returned?  Hardly. Did I expect anything in return? Never.  But I know. Really, I do. 

I am counting my blessings.  If you have one true friend you are blessed.  If you have two, you have abundance.  If you have three, you made good choices with your energy.

A dear friend spoke a bit about judgment, discernment the other day.  Who is there for you when the chips are down.  To whom do you place your energy.  Words come cheap, but efforts...wow oh wow.

Two people offered to help me.  I have abundance.  Friends.  And there are friends at distance, you continually send me notes of encouragement and joy.  I so appreciate you! 

I've learned a lot these past few years on my own.  I have been taught well.  By the experts.  The rest of you, I'll 'unfriend' you fast. No hard feelings.  I just don't want to expend any more energy on you.  My energy, heretofore, goes to those deep in my heart.  Thank you, thank you, thank you.
