Friendships and mental health; can you be a friend? (II/II)

Read Part I HERE The meeting at the breakfast place that served the worlds second best coffee was an enlightening one. I learned a new thing about having social circles; how newly met acquaintences are able to relate to you and sort of run into the Friendship zone. Well actually not, since this was just the first meeting of a group of people; for friendship to take place, there should be situations that help build trust and in this situation there was no such. Moving on, the very next day; I start getting messages and calls from one of the common friends about the book keeper. The messages were alarming and had indicated that the book keeper was in trouble, big, big trouble! 

What does the Johny Walker whisky logo and a blind man have in common?

Every year, 15 October is celebrated as White Cane Safety Day. As ever I got caught up in so many things to do with work and training I did not find the time or the energy to write something about my trusted companion the white cane. I was introduced to this mobility aid in the year 2011. At first it made no sense using this aid as a mobility tool as it told me no directions or wasn't smart enough to guide or get me out of a pickle.
