How do you define "Friend" ?
-Someone that you can trust ?
-Someone that understanding you ?
-Someone that you can spend time with ?
-Someone that you willing to pour your heart out and lend a listening hear ?
Everyone got a different definition on it.
For me, at times "Friend" is very clear but at times it does not seem to exist at all. Am I taking "Friend" for granted or the other way round.. I also not sure...
Who are the one around you that you regard as "Friend" or in this society now, what are the things you regards as "Friend ". WHAT instead of WHO is being used.
WHAT = money , house, car etc... at times when you have all these, it seem that people will automatic attract to you and suddenly become your "friend". ..well it is just my personal observation. True or not , I don't think there is a need to argue as this is a belief that I have and I no need anyone to agree or disagree with this belief of mine. But I do truly believe that I have people around me that I do regard them as "Friend" in my own definition. :) [ i always said colleagues and friends are different. For those who know me, will know my definition between these two and I mean it :P ]
When the someone become your "Friend" , your expectation towards this person will change. You start to expect a bit more of this "friend"'s attention, time , understanding, care and much much more and I suppose the verse versa happen if the other party regard you as "Friend". At this point of time, when expectation is not being met, arguments and unhappiness may arise. This is where the friendship will come to a test.
A test that if both of you can resolve and score a Pass to it , this is where the friendship can last longer and more tolerance level can be obtained. If the test ends with the negative result , this friendship might be gone forever. The way you resolve the issue is really very much depending on how much do you care about the friendship. If this friendship matters to you , most of the time you will try ways and means to solve it.
For the fact, everyone will die one day, just that you don't know when this day will come. Is there really someone that you regard as "Friend" and also is it worth that you take your "Friend" for granted and letgo of them easily ?
Friends Forever!
