What Makes a Friend?

I wouldn’t be where I am if it wasn’t for the amazing people in my life that I’m lucky enough to consider friends. Thankfully, I’ve been able to meet a diverse group of people that all share some common traits that I find important. These are the pillars of the friendships that have built my journey:

  • Kindness (Not always “Nice”) – Kindness strives to improve without expectation of anything in return. Niceness is self serving – done with expectations of something in return. Learn the difference – spread kindness.
  • Tolerance – Intolerant of intolerance. Embrace the weird, the different, and the unexpected.
  • Authenticity – Real talk, real connections, no masks. If you know who and what you are, you’ll fit right in.

With this in mind, if you’d like to visit some friendly communities – below are some that I recommend!

  • Information Entropy – My favorite dispensary. They have knowledgeable budtenders and premium products – all of which you can give a “nose” test by request.
  • MOOiAmATree (Discord) – MOO has been a fantastic informational resource for all things cannabis related. His Youtube videos are extremely detailed and thorough – showing what makes (or breaks) a device.
