FRIENDSHIP

    There are many people that have walked in and out of my life, but only true friends have left footprints in my heart. I believe in friendship. It doesn’t have to be perfect. We all human! It does not have to be everlasting! It just the moment in your life you feel that this person is your real friend. Your friend doesn’t have to be there for every time you want it! Indeed, he has his own life too. It doesn’t depend whether it is female of male friendship! Who cares if this is the right person for you!

   People today, in all this new world technology and media era, have lost sight of what a true friendship is. So I thought I would help the world out a little and explain what real, true friends are.

1. Family relations are built on family ties, while friendship is build on trust. We do not choose our relatives, but we can choose friends. Your friends are not what you are, but they are a part of your life.

 2. Friends don't have to be exactly the same. Friends have similarities, but they also have their differences. They key to opening up the world of friendship is not only to expand on similarities but to accept each other's faults.

 3. Friends have to argue! No one likes to, but it is necessary to be healthy. Cause if you agree on everything, either you had a clone or someone isn't being true.

 4. You have to be comfortable together or else you just aren't going to click. If you feel edgy around the person then something isn't quite right.

 5. Friends love unconditionally. They have there little angry moments but what's done is done. Why let something that happened in the past ruin what happiness you could have in the future?

 6. A friend is someone to rage with when life is really unfair. That's not to say they're going to help you plot your ex's murder or anything like that, but when you're really ticked off and need to vent, they'll be there for you. You can safely tell your real friends just how angry you are and they'll help you find ways to dissipate the anger and to eventually let it go. Humor is a wonderful way that friends have of helping us to let go of our anger. Rather then help you plot the murder, they can throw out a few wonderfully witty comments about your ex and get you laughing again.

 7. A friend is someone that you can laugh with until you make that funny snorting sound. Only with my dearest friends have I laughed so hard that tears poured down my face. I have shared funny stories with my friends that I'd never share with coworkers and such. Part of it is because with real friends there is a trust level and you know that you have similar views about what's humor and what's not. So, you can share jokes that otherwise might not be appropriate to tell the church ladies after service. Real friends laugh together..

Reversing the famous quote:                             

Real friends discuss ideas and dreams;

Average friends discuss events;

Small friends discuss people.

These are only a few of the basics. Don't diss your buds, love them instead. And when they drive you nuts, love them much more for being just a little bit different and maybe just a little bit quirky!

 

My list is not full. Can you expand it?

 

I would appreciate.

I loved your post, Marina! It's so pure and deals what is really important for every person in the world - firendship!
I agree with all your points, especially with 6th. Regarding it I had my own life lesson. When I was seriously sick about 5 months ago, I found interesting thing. There was only one person (except for my parents) who was calling me just to know about my health. Only one!
Others were calling to tell about their business, complain of something, discuss some people... Mostly, they even didn't ask about my affairs! It was so strange!
After that occasion I understood that I should give pay most of my attention to the REAL FRIENDS who care about you and support you when something goes wrong. And, of course, parents.
Thank you for the great post!
I wish you have more real friends in your life than you could expect! ;)

I like this post Marina. I believe in true friendship. Many people in our lives are not true friends at all. They masquerade behind this idea, and we continue to call them friends because we want to believe that they are true. :) I know one friend to be a true friend, and she is definitely a blessing from God.

Just to add, a friend in need is a true friend indeed.

I totally agree with you sometimes is hard to distinguish a true friend from the fake one! but life helps us to do it by setting problems and tasks we cannot overcome without friends! Asking for help will show you he is real and who is not! I have a lot of friends that are ready to go out and party with me, but in case I would ask them for help very few of them will try to help me out! (((((
