The people we surround ourselves with either raise or lower our standards. They either help us to become the best verion of ourselves or encourage us to become lesser versions of ourselves. We become like our friends. No man becomes great on his own. No women become great on her own. The people aroudn them help to make them great. We all need people in our lives who raise our standards, remind us of our essential purpose, and challenge us to become th eless version of ourselves. - unknown

A friend .. awakens your life in order to free the wild possibilities within you. - John O'donoue
