Dear Taoseeker, You say you take things seriously most of the time. Thing is, most people take things seriously too, and you need to figure out what they are.

Dear Taoseeker, You say you take things seriously most of the time. Thing is, most people take things seriously too, and you need to figure out what they are. To have friends is to give friendship. And to give friendship is to pay attention to what things people take seriously. And to walk in their shoes a bit, climb into their skin, feel what they feel when they feel what they feel. Seriously, it's near impossible for your friends to walk away from you if you take the things they take seriously as seriously as they feel they should.
