Fair Weather Friends

Over the summer when I was in a crisis point situation I really found out who my friends were and let me tell you there were not many. As a matter of fact only one person responded to my need and it was someone I did not even ask for help. Do you ever get tired of people with fake smiles and false promises who claim to be your friend but somehow they are never there when you need them? I got tired of it. Real tired of it. I deleted quite a few people from my friends that day and I do not regret a single one.
Now I know we are supposed to forgive and forget. To overlook those small imperfections in people and try to see the good in everyone. I was raised in the South. That means as a lady you are never rude, never confrontational, you never ever speak up for yourself, you just keep taking people's crap with a smile on your face. Well I don't think so. Not ever again. I can be a kind, compassionate, strong Southern lady without that kind of nonsense.
