There is a famous saying. Its lonely at the top.

Not really, but I've lost interest in them. Hanging out with stoners is like hanging out with grandmas.

Its really hard to keep these close relationships together, when you grow so far apart. In some sense I appreciate my friends even more, but I also realise that the only thing that keeps us together is our past. Im grateful that we got to grow up together and I also hope that we get to see eachother grow into the men we ought to become, but yeah, its hard and I dont think there would be anyone to blame, if we ended up growing apart.

   That's the sacrifice you got to pay, for trying to lead a very successful millionaire like life, working away in some room, allocating most of your time and energy into projects. For example, I am not at celebrity level fame, I am reasonably famous, but the process of writing my stories, creating my backgrounds and sprites, finding the right music, and especially coding my Visual Novels, while doing my comic books, and on top of that doing my business and marketing stuff for my projects, takes so much time and energy, that it's no different from a 9-6 work in reality, really. It's just you slightly like this work versus the other, even though this work is more restrictive for the sake of higher quality content.

   I guess I'm very lucky, to have had a small circle of friends in the past, but now very few to sometimes no contact, which gets me much more time and energy to do what I want to do.

   Success is the hell you go through, to make the heavenly content.
