I'm struggling to be a friend right now. I found out that I'm not as patient with "friends" as I thought I am. I learned that my well of understanding is shallow and that my power of persuasion borders on the fringes of dictatorship.

What happened to me? I need to meditate to find courage to help friends find their way back to their happy zone.
