Importance of Friendship
Just like as night befalls and we seek light, similarly the glow of friendship is important to help us walk through the path of life. True friendship is not like fair weather friends and is beyond any kind of prejudice. A real friend is not selfish and does not compare his haves and have nots with you. The wealth of friendship is never estimated by the yardstick of money or position. All of us diversify ourselves with time into a different personalities but the innate quality to bond with a special friends is always there.
Friendship is important during all times. We need to share the achievement of our targets, our child’s milestones, our parent’s health and also air our apprehensions to someone who judges us with any judgment. It may be impossible to meet a friend often who is at a distance owing to geography or owing to our own personal commitments, but there is certainly other ways to maintain the contact.
Friendship teaches us to share. It is an eye opener that you seem to understand a person who is like you and yet has so many traits that is a total contrast as per your expectations in life. It is fine to confide in a friend and also value his or her opinion. One must be able to gauge the quality of friendship. Few friends are just about themselves and indulge in your affairs only when they have time. It is better to have few friends who are genuine than have a group of friends who have a motive behind their acts.
Friendship is like the garden that blossoms with different colors of flowers but on the whole is a pleasant feeling. It is like the horizon that stretches itself and is calming to the viewer. We all have fall outs in the best of friendship and off guard comments do hurt us. These could be one off moments and hence it is not wise to carry grudges in any kind of friendship.
Value friendship but always maintain a line of control. These are certain habits or priorities which a friend values which may not be your predicament and hence steer off any kind of prejudices. Advise a friend who is straying away but also understand his feelings. Friendship is as important like the changing seasons that make us so strong to face the real changes that life brings about.
