My partner and I are blissfully happy and in love, but over the last six weeks we have had four sets of friends brake up. I now find that some of these people are now acting strange around us, like we aren't meant to be happy because they aren't. Both my partner and I have been married before so we know what they are going through and are trying to be supportive but it is hard when they are being short tempered and gloomy all the time when around us it really brings the mood down for everyone. My question to the world is have others found this among their friends, does it get better or have we lost our friends.

My philosphy take care of number one foremost and share in the good and not so good within your cricle of friends. Sometimes we are not in a position to help those who by choice will not help themselves no matter how hard you try, it rests with ones self acceptance.

Disharmony results from an inability to accept what is before us, when we do resolve is oh so healthy and happiness returns. I feel Raksha's experience with an elder speaks volumes of what we create in our lives as part of the journey in life.
