Keep Your Circle Small

A young girl asked an elderly woman: "Do I really need friends in life?"

The elderly woman responded: "Yes. Life is truly very rough. There should be someone by your side with whom you can talk for hours without feeling that they would judge you; on whose shoulders you can cry, one who will give you emotional support.
