It occurs to me that finding new friends is like panning for gold. Sometimes you come across some Fool’s Gold, which is shiny but essentially worthless. Sometimes you get tiny flecks of gold dust. Once or twice in a lifetime you come across a really big nugget. But most of the time you’re just standing up to your knees in cold water, with gravel in your shoes.
