And you wonder how some people are only decent human beings when they are down and out. I guess the true test of character is when you think your life is on track and that you have everything you think you need. And i wonder how i could become so disgusted at someone i once called a friend, and defended when others said he’s full of himself and an egomaniac. Makes me shudder to think that it truly takes a long time to know someone. Too long.
