Friendship!!a relationship that we have with a person or lots of people whereby we get to communicate and talk to each other.At a point,some friends turn into family and more.
Let’s take about this contest by @sahmie on friendship and it’s importance in our lives.

What qualities do you value most in a friend?why are these qualities important to you?

Have a friend or friends is a beautiful experience that one can ever get to have,a shoulder to rest on and talk to aside your family members.Friendship leads to a lot of things,one can get connection and jobs through a friend,get married to a friend,start business and a whole lot more.

I would say that the quality I value most in a friend would be trust,loyalty ,time,care,support and love,not that the rest are not important but these are like the core values.my friends must have these values for me to call them my friends,I have to be able to trust them and they also have to do the same thing,leaving no room for doubts amongst us,they have to be loyal,there should be form of backbiting or spiting each other or fake love amongst each other.A friend must have the time to be able to communicate,talk to each other,know things about each other,be caring,supportive and have great love for each other.

Have you ever had a disagreement or conflict with a friend?how did you handle it,and What did you learn from this experience?

Yes I have,we are humans and tend to get on each other’s nerve no matter how much we love or care about each other,we sometimes do things that upset another.I have had series of arguments with my friends,most which I can’t remember anymore because I forgot it and let go just so things don’t get sore between us.

i do remember this particular friend called Emmanuel,we had an argument about something and I quickly flared up and started arguing and shouting,we almost got physical with each other but our other friends stopped us,remembering,the argument was about him saying things as a joke about me but I didn’t take it as a joke but personal and we had a blow out.
After being calmed by my friends,I just sat on my way and had to think about everything,my anger caused issues but still pride won’t let me apologize,getting home I texted him and we talked things out which made my heavy heart light and things got better amongst us.I learnt that I shouldn’t always take things personal and also to heart and I should also work on my anger issues.

What role does trust play in a friendship?how do you build and maintain trust with your friends ?

Trust plays a very important role in frienship or any type of relationship,it is the bedrock of all relationships.without trust in any relationship,it will be based on lies and doubts which isn’t good for a relationship.When you trust your friend,you believe they can’t do anything to hurt you or do what will make you loose trust in them or anything of sort.
Building and maintains trust can be a little difficult,but with time,assurance,support,love and care it’s very much possible,some people tend not to trust people,it takes time so one has to convince them and give them reasons why they should actually trust one.

How do you support your friends during challenging times?what are some ways you should show empathy and offer help when they need it?

We all go though tough and challenging times,we need someone to talk to and spill out all or problems to,our anger and everything that’s wrong with us at the moment.Most times ,our friends are the one that’s mostly there,they show support and endless love.

One can support one’s friend by being there why they truly are in need,comfort them,give word of assurance,be nice,respectful,lovable,show kindness to them and assure them that every thing will be alright.Changing their sour and bad mood to a cheerful one and giving them hope of happiness.
If a friend is going through financial problems or any other problems ,one need to stand by them in all situation ,find means to help them out of that situation,offer solutions and the rest just so they can be happy at long last and free from problems.

What does it mean to be a good friend?how do you strive to be a good friend to those around you?

It means a lot to be a good friend,a good friend or friendship shows selfless love,undying and amazing compassion and care,support with each other.A good friend is one that is there when you need him the most,a listening ear to share your sadness ,sorrow and happiness.A good friend is always there to support one during hard times and the likes.

It is normal to be good to those that are good to someone,once I notice a person does stuffs for me,I will reciprocate the energy,in friendship one must not just be taking but learn to also give back and be good,show love ,attention,support,care and a whole lots more to the other .

In conclusionWithout friends,life will be boring and most definitely more difficult,friends Make everything feel better and are there for one,it’s a beautiful experience that we must get to live.
