Musings and Woes

There was a time in my life when people would scratch my back and I wouldn't scratch theirs back. I'm not sure why. "You scratch my back and I'll scratch yours" meant nothing to me. I knew it was wrong, but I refused. Bless those people who continued to scratch my back even when they knew I wouldn't reciprocate. Even when my back wasn't particularly itchy, they scratched. They stuck with me. Nowadays I'll scratch your back before you scratch mine. Humbling. I guess we all make mistakes in our youth.
