Wisdom comes with age and
experience. At this juncture in your life you have no doubt amassed a wealth of
it. You would be surprised to know that your journey may be similar and of
interest to someone in need of a friend. Do not be afraid to foster a
relationship of respect, trust and confidentiality as this can be mutually
rewarding. Be that friend, the confidante, the shoulder to cry on, quick to suggest
alternative actions but being prudent in giving advice.
During my rebellious
teenage years when my mother couldn’t persuade me to do the right thing it was
her best friend that was able to reach me. Years later I surmised that the
approach of the friend was more logical and less emotionally charged and thus I
reacted much more positively. My success today is in large part attributable to
the intervention of that friend.
