"Don't worry if you have built your castles in the air. They are where they should be - now put the foundations under them."
Relationships and friendships are like castles, they all need foundations to support them otherwise they'll collapse under the pressure. Sometimes we forget to start with the more simple things like communication or trust, simply rushing into the more complicated things. Things will fall apart and afterwards there won't be any pieces to pick up & put back together again because there never was anything there to begin with.
Basically put time into getting to know people before you go running into a relationship blindly and get hurt and caught out. If you don't have the foundations there first - build it up before they fall out of your grasp. Fix it while you still can.
Laura.
