the first thing that we look for in people is some desirable quality.
in school, we ask them to help us with homework. outside, we ask them for help in our social life. they're always there to help or assist us in some way. so why do we make friends? are they merely stepping stones for us? this came up because of a conversation i had with my mom.. she said... "the puspose of having friends is to get help. not to just keep talking and going out." it's kinda like she was telling me that "friends" are merely tools... your thoughts on this topic.... please? |

A friend is patient; a friend is kind; a friend is not envious or boastful or arrogant or rude. a friend does not insist on his/her own way; a friend is not irritable or resentful; a friend does not rejoice in wrongdoing, but rejoices in the truth. a friend along with you bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.
friendship never ends. A friend is one you grow to love and defines love. Associates are those you use as tools. But if you see them as just tools their not friends. Because if you just use people there is no mutual respect. What is mutual respect? Thats love. ANd friendship is one of the biggest forms of love. one real friend is better than 10 fake ones. |
