Some might recall the ageless stories of Pancha-Tantra (panch = five, Tantra =
systems/games/ways)
http://www.panchatantra.org/the-loss-of-friends.html
Loss of Friends:
to be most careful is when you are powerful but gullible and make friends with
another who is powerful but relies on external advice - my own family life has
been struck by this story and thanks to it I am here in US.
Powerful synergies and collaborations can be undone by scheming persons - esp
when political power is at stake --whether in an organization or at govt/state
level.
Thankfully, I had great friends who have been my pillars of support -- so
having great friends networks is useful !!???
