Be slow in choosing a friend but slower in changing him.
In this overstressed, hyperlinked age some people seem wired to everything but each other. They strive for companionship though there are those who find pleasure in solitude. For me the presence of friends is what makes life worthwhile. I appreciate friendship but it’s a complicated thing. It is more than just hanging out together at lunch and gossiping about other people. It may take you years to form friendship as friendship between people grows only when they have common views and judgments on things and events, common interests and ambitions. Or friendship can click in a blink of an eye. Without explanation you understand each other as if you’ve been together for years. Sometimes when you least expect you can identify a soul mate in a flash.
When I feel blue and the world around me seems grey, if I have a problem to get off my chest, I need someone to help me. Then I turn to my friend . Of course I can go to my parents as well as we are on friendly terms and I can boast of close relationship with my parents, but you understand that there are things you would never tell them. Moreover my problems may seem silly to them as there is a generation gap that can cause misunderstanding.
So it’s my friend’s support, advice, encouragement that make me happier and stronger, make me sure of my abilities, help to confront despair, lay it aside and continue my trials. Friends are absolutely disinterested and they help you without being asked to and without the expectation that you will have to repay them. A true friend can always acknowledge his fault if he is wrong and apologize. Besides a true friend can forgive you if you have hurt his feelings or if you have given him a lot of trouble.
I agree with the statement that the way to have a friend is to be a friend. Friendship means not only taking but giving advice and support in return. It requires much patience, extra care, honesty, mutual understanding and readiness to sacrifice yourself for the sake of your friend. When my friend asks me for something there is no tomorrow for him.
I feel blessed to have a very loyal girl(boy)-friend, a hand to lean on. His name is Victor (her name is Elizabeth). His(her) parents are very polite, helpful and welcoming people and I always feel like I am an inherent part of their family too. He is a tall, smart, bright-eyed sporty guy of sixteen(she is a rosy, smooth-haired, bright-eyed girl with a shy manner). He (she) is a good-mannered, intellectual boy(girl) who is able to maintain the right sort of contact with different types of character. He (she) shows neither superiority towards her(his) friends nor inferiority towards adults. She(he) is never tired of what she(he) is doing at the moment. Liz (Victor) is good at giving arguments to prove her(his) point of view. All our conflicts are smoothed by her. Once when I had some disagreements with my classmates she explained to me how to make up by means of compromises. Sometimes she is in low spirits or a bit self-confident and then I try not to be very intrusive. Our friendship is the key to our spiritual growth and it gives us another set of eyes with which we can view the world and our place within it. We are sharing same interests – reading, watching movies, doing sports, travelling, partying, etc. That’s what friendship is about- communicating, sharing, helping each other, forgetting dreadful things and remembering good ones forever and ever.
In general it is stressful to live in the world of strangers, that’s why people need friends. They give us a sense of being protected, emotional comfort and moral support. Having no friend can be emotionally damaging in some cases. Summing up the above mentioned I’d like to say that true friendship is like sound health; the value of it is seldom known until it is lost.
