How do you approach unrequited effort in friendship?

I don’t really measure effort in friendships. There is the connection and there is the life it fits into which is often busy and overwhelming. I don’t befriend people who I feel are subtly mean or have anything but pure love towards me, so with that as the foundation I never think about effort in that way because I trust that the intention is always pure. When the trust cracks, I distance myself, no hard feelings.

Sumela Monastery is located in the Maçka district of Trabzon Province, in modern-day Turkey. It is a former Greek Orthodox monastery whose foundation dates back to the 4th century CE. The monastery was restored several times by various Byzantine emperors, and its present structure primarily dates to the 13th century. It is dramatically nestled into a steep cliff face at an elevation of approximately 1,200 meters, overlooking the lush Altındere Valley.
