This explains why at the age of 72 I still don't have but one or two real friends. I will just continue to speak my mind and if nobody wants to hear, don't listen 👂

My mother told me as a teen that the reason I didn't have any friends was because I was too honest. I'm genuine, and I have integrity. I don't miss not having fair weather friends.
I have to admit that sometimes I don't like myself. I can be really harsh with people and after I hurt their feelings, I think "why did I say that?" It's hard for me to bite my tongue when somebody asks me for advice or my opinion.
I try. Now that I'm on a fixed income it's a bit harder. But I donate to shelters, the ASPCA, Humane Society and a local organization that provides clothing for free for those in need.
