Welcome to the Gary Underwood show! Sometimes on this podcast, Gary brings up important thoughts or things he’s heard throughout the day. Today’s reflection comes from a meeting at a coffee shop with longtime friend Jason – who is last name will remain anonymous at this point – where they talk about Gary’s propensity to talk a lot. Ironically, Jason did not know that I had already started this podcast and was making a commitment to talking even more, lol!
So here’s the deal – one of the things about great friendships is that your friends will reflect back honestly and carefully what they see in you… They can point out the good things in you…
They can point out your abilities perhaps the right friend can even point out your flaws and you still feel cared for and you want to stay friends with them.
Friendships can handle the truth, and I’m glad Jason just said some things the other day that affirmed a bit about who I am and what I am processing with this podcast.
