Lovely and helpful post...thank you.

So true when you said "these people are gold."

It's been my experience that its not always easy to find a true, genuine and caring friend or life partner. One who has enough self esteem and confidence in their own right to be good about fully encouraging you and your growth.

If and when this person is found, it seems only right, natural and wise to be good back to them, because as was said "these people are gold!!!"
