The bond that links your true family is not the one of blood, but of respect and joy in each other's life. -- Richard Bach
Families we create, as we are drawn to certain people. We adopt mentors, both the ones we know personally and those we meet through books. As we model ourselves after them, they become part of our spiritual family.
Our friends change---as we change---over time. Who we hang out with is so important. True friends have the courage to tell us when we are losing our way. They care enough to have difficult conversations with us. If we wish to have greatness in our lives, we need to surround ourselves with great people.
The meeting of two personalities is like the contact of two chemical substances---if there is a reaction, both are transformed. -- Jung
