Summary

This quote highlights the idea that friendship, much like a bank account, requires a give-and-take dynamic in order to thrive. Just as we can withdraw money only when we have enough funds in our account, we can rely on our friends' support, assistance, and companionship only when we contribute to the friendship in return. Making deposits in the form of kindness, empathy, trust, and time strengthens our relationships and fosters the mutual trust necessary for friendships to endure. Without regular contributions, friendships can become unbalanced, strained, or fizzle out over time.
