I lived in a very poor part of Brazil with a friend who grew up there and his family still lived there.

Once I figured out I was the one doing this to myself, I went out and made a bunch of friends. We learned alot from each other and at this point my life was great. I no longer cared about anything but my new friends, not what I had or what they didn't. People are people and there always be good and bad. Go find the good ones no matter were you are.

Thanks, bELyVIS. I made a core group of friends when I lived in Japan who still visit at the same old watering hole every year.
