Everyone need someone in the life for share happiness and grife.By friends we can fill space of Someone. Friendship is the most beautiful, most powerful and most valuable treasure in life. It is our true wealth. No matter how much status a person may gain how rich one may become, a life without friends is indeed sad and lonely; it also leads to an unbalanced, self- centred existence.
What is true friendship?True friendship implies a
relationship where we empathise with our friends when they’re suffering and encourage them not to lose heart, and where they, in turn, empathise with us when we are in the same boat and try to cheer us up. A friendship with those qualities flows as beautifully as a pure, fresh stream.
“The best friends are those with whom we can advance together towards a shared a goal. Nothing is more beautiful than friendship developed among challenging themselves and encouraging each other as they work towards the realisation of a common goal. Such relationships are even more beautiful than those between parent and child, husband and wife, and lovers. This kind of profound friendship is the highest mark, and the very flame, of humanity.”True friendship is not a relationship of dependence, but of independence. It is the enduring bond that connects self- reliant individuals, comrades who share the same commitment, on a spiritual dimension.
I don’t have any friends. How can I make friends?If we have no any close friends right now, we need not worry. We just need to tell ourselves that we make efforts now, we can have wonderful friends in the future. We must concentrate our energies now on becoming a fine person. In the future we are sure to have friends all over the world.
Friendship is determined by the way we live our life. If we always remain sincere in our interactions with others, we will one day naturally come to find ourselves surrounded by good friends. And from among those people, we will forge lifelong friendship that are as strong and unshakeable as a towering tree. There is no need to be impatient. We must work first on developing ourselves. An infinite number of wonderful encounters awaits us in the future.
Ultimately, the only way to make good friends is for us to become good friends ourselves. Good people gather around other good people.
My friendship do not last long. How can I make my friendship deep and enduring?Friendship among people who cheerfully encourage each other while striving to realize their dreams are the kind that deepen and endure.
“Its important to understand that friendship depends on us, not on the other person. It all comes down ro our own attitude and contribution. We must not be fair- weather friends, only helping others when circumstances are good and leaving them high and dry when some problem occurs. Instead, let’s become the kind of person who sticks by their friends with unchanging loyalty through thick and thin.”We many think that friendship just happen spontaneously and than develop by themselves. But actually we must always try to infuse our friendship with an eternally youthful spirit to grow and advance. We must have the commitment to always be there to encourage and help one another as we work towards our respective aims and goals in life.
“It’s also important to keep the promise made to friends. This is the true meaning of friendship. To become a person who can do so, however, we must learn to keep our resolutions- the promises we have made to ourselves.”In any event, should a friendship end there’s no need to grow despondent. We don’t have to beat ourselves up, Thinking friendship should last forever. The important thing is that we never forget the true meaning of friendship and make it the basis for our interactions with others.
I have been ditched by my best friend. How can I trust anyone now?The best way is if we hold fast to our own identity with the spirit- “Others may change, but I will stay who I am.” If we should be snubbed or let down by others, we should have the strength of character to vow that we will never do the same to anyone.
“ If we feel hurt or betrayed by someone , isn’t it better to make a new friend, rather than stop trusting people altogether? If we don’t trust anyone, yes, certainly, we might avoid being hurt or let down, but we will only end up leading a lonely, barren existence locked up in our own shell. The fact is, only someone who has experienced pain and hardships can empathise with others and treat them with kindness. It’s essential, therefore, that we become strong”There are some people that I can’t get along with. How can I be friends with them?Just as there are some foods that we find unpalatable, having people in our environment whom we dislike is an unavoidable part of life. While there’s nothing wrong with not particularity liking someone, it is wrong to put them down or behave meanly towards them. They have every right to exist just as we do and to have their own opinions and way of doing things. It’s important to cultivate a broad-minded outlook.
“The generosity of spirit to respect those whose character and personality are different from our own is the very foundation of friendship. If we have a big heart, we will be able to from many wonderful friendships. But a small, stingy heart cultivates nothing but a narrow, barren, lonely life bereft of genuine friendship”People of conviction, people who stand alone, people who pursue their chosen path- not only are such people good and trustworthy friends themselves, but they can make genuine friends of other.
Treasuring friendship is deeply meaningful in that it embodies the spirit of humanism and peace. It is the first step towards realizing an ideal society where people can live together in harmony.
