While I was much younger,I was completely naive and young to depict or understand what we call friends….I had a misconception about FRIEND/ FRIENDSHIP thinking that anyone I knew or spoke to was my friend not until I grew wiser and mature and certain situations made me realize the meaning of true friendship and who is worthy to be called a friend Growing up, most of us were limited to a geographical space, and our environment could define how we made our friends. School, neighborhood, church, mosque and so on and this brings us to today’s topic on Emmahspeaks π»
To start with,we all use and say the word FRIEND,but have you sat back to ponder on the true meaning of friend/friendship?
A friend is someone who’s always there for you not withstanding the circumstances either good or bad,one who advises you,one who understands you,one who brings all positive ideas to life and make you see the need to be successful…..(now by successful,I don’t mean financially successful alone),one who’s ready to listen and speak to you….. someone doesn’t scold or call your attention when you go wrong is that a friend???A good friend should make you yield positive result…..A friend is a person whom one has a bond of mutual and cordial affection with.
The word FRIENDSHIP has been greatly abused to the extent that you could meet someone today and call the person your friend because you’re able to talk and connect with the person….How can you be friends with someone who doesn’t share a bond with you,who can’t lead you on the right track, who can’t dictate when you’re wrong,who can’t push you forward.
We’re all familiar with this bon mot “show me your friend and I’ll tell you who you are” or “Evil communication corrupts good manners”…..The people who came up with these wits knew the basis of friendship and have one way or the other experienced the good and bad side of friendship.
Your choice of friends is who people see you as, friends could make or mar you, there is more to friendship than mere discussions, hanging out and all other fun aspects.If your “friend” is only around you when things are rosy and disappears when things are difficult and bitter,then begin to redefine your “friendship” with such person.Friends are to stand by each other no matter the turbulence
In my next post I’ll be giving more details… please don’t forget to like, comment and follow my blog… Anticipate π Gracias,Dios te bendigaβ€οΈ

This is so explicit. Not everyone deserves to be called a “friend”. Some are better left as acquaintances.
