I've learned to keep your mouth shut even when something bad is going on. You never know how someone is going to take something you say. You have to bite the bullet.

I learned you can't trust the judgment of good friends.

One of the most beneficial things I've ever learned is how to keep my mouth shut.

I've learned that I am allowed to say what I like and what I don't like. And I've learned that I have to be professional and not be everyone's best friend.

You really find out who your friends are and who you can trust. That definitely toughens you.

Friends accept you the way you are.

I know things, but I shut my mouth. They don't want me to speak, so I don't speak.

As you learn who you are, you can better surround yourself with friends who make you a better person, and that sometimes only happens when you disassemble old relationships.
