WHAT DO YOU MAKE OF FRIENDS

in #steemitbloggers7 years ago

Great Minds,
Friends are the beautiful of life, especially good ones that are friends indeed. A friend seek to protect your interest, share both your joy and sorrow and watches your back. But sometimes friends become cause for concern, they get too familiar with us to the point they become envious and overtime the friendship quality fades away. Friends become betrayals who give you out. So the question is what do you make of friends? Who are your friends and how much of yourself do you give out to friends. While it is important to make friends, it is expedient to moderate our level of friendship. Be a smart friend.

There are cases of friends selling off the friends, some ladies take over their friends relationship, some men take over their friends ladies and so on. And these happen so frequently and easy because over time we seem to rely so much on our friends that we leave everything to them, we trust our friendship so much we even trust them with our lives. Then they take advantage of it and strike so hard. Sometimes the friend himself may still maintain his trust and loyalty but the enemy may use him so easy as bait to get to you.

The problem is, it is difficult to know a truly trustworthy friend and also to know the limit to extent to trust a friend to avoid giving them too much to get at us. But there is always the general rule to be moderate in everything you do. While it is good to trust a friend, it is also risky to trust them so much to leave your life in someone's life.

Who is a better friend?
A friend that has something to prove to you, someone you know his antics both his bad and good deeds, in fact a former enemy who sorted for your downfall and now a friend. Yes he makes a better friend because he would always have some to prove, to show that he is on your side. He can go all length to show to you he is on your side. He is a better friend.

On the whole, there is no better friend than yourself, make friend with yourself. Be truthful and honest with yourself. Know what you want and go for it. Reduce how much you depend on people. Think it through first before you go about discussing with friends. Some friends are just there waiting for your secret to be broadcast, they seek your downfall secretly and smile to your face.

We never made progress sometimes because our plans are leaked out before executed. We spend time friending and looking for friends to talk with instead of thinking through and starting up.
Have friends but be moderate in your friendship, know where to draw the line at all times and don't be carried away.

Live sweet and enjoy life
