Who is a Friend
So the subject today is friendship, this is quite diverse and I know each one of you has a particular perspective or myth or theory mainly different thoughts, I will share mine and would love to hear from you,hip is a special relationship between two or more people based on trust, feelings, and understanding of each other. friendship is highly based on mutual care, trust, and love. in this generation the concept of friendship has been narrowed down to one thing , " people we know", mostly by name and what they care to share with us but besides that, there is no deeper connection experienced or built, we meet and have a good time and we all walk away, when something goes wrong, we cut off communication and call it quits, no one ever apologizes instead we look for memes to support our selfishness.
I think friends
I know you must be raising your eyebrows now but truth be told many of us don't really have friends in our lives rather we have a lot of people that we know a little bit about. let me take you back to when we were younger, we all had a magnitude of friends, I bet whoever is reading this had five best friends not counting the other people you called friends and also their friends were your friends.
Life was a bit loud considering you had less to lose, every new day you made or lost a friend without giving a thought to whom you were adding on your circle , but later in life as you grew up , the circle grew smaller and within no time, it was narrowed down to one best friend or even none , I don't want to go into reasons why we end up with few friends because I'm sure as you read this , a lot is running through your mind.
Back to the point, later in life we realize that we do not need many people if we are to succeed in life, we discover hypocrisy and also play part ourselves , all in all we make the decision who we want to be as well as who we want to be associated with in the long run friendships are no longer natural but are driven by similarity in ambitions, thoughts, likes and dislikes and mostly what the other party can offer.
Most of us have important people in our lives that we call friends but honestly we are just keeping them around just in case we may need them in future or already they are playing an important role in our lives.
Look at all the people in your life that you call friends......and try answering these questions hope they can give you a bit of insight and you get to differentiate between people that you know and the actual friends.
how well do you know them?
If asked randomly to mention your closest friends who would you mention? Whose telephone number, do you have of the head? Whose character can you defend even in their absence? Mention one thing, your friend cannot live without? at least this you must know Now for this last question, there is either one answer or none If you lost your family and everything that you have now, totally broke and cannot even afford water, who among your friends/ people you know would take you in?
