Two of my friends lost their jobs yesterday. Many people came to see them/called them.
Some were like “When will I lose my job?”
and some like “When will I lose my job?”
Both sentences sounds and spells the same, but their meanings are worlds apart.
If something bad happens to your friend, you can either worry about the same thing happening to you, or you can think about the day you can join your friend.
Whatever, don’t try to fake your relations – you will never succeed.

Profound.
As Holden Caulfield would’ve said, I hate phonies!
+1 for the Holden Caulfield reference!
Your only obligation in any lifetime is to be true to yourself. Being true to anyone else or anything else is not only impossible, but the mark of a fake messiah…………
We are what we say and show we are.
There is no point in talking about the “real motivation” or “selfishness” in any relationship. Try to be true to your people.
But always remember one thing: Try not to form relationships with people who always fake it. They look more appealing (because they fake it), but will leave you in despair.
