Sometimes being a friend means mastering the art of timing. There is a time for silence. A time to let go and allow people to hurl themselves into their own destiny. And a time to prepare to pick up the pieces when it's all over.

In my experience, there are a lot of situations where you have to give before you get. I think in friendships this is the case. If you give, you will always get back. Sometimes you give and you get an amazing friend. Other times you give and you get information about how untrustworthy someone is and how unworthy they are of your friendship. I like the first way best.
I also find in grocery shopping they expect you to give money before you get your groceries, but that isn't really what this blog post is about.
