Friend
A friend in need is a friend indeed.Objectively if I view this saying, it seems that "self" is given more importance than friend.It seems as if friend is not a friend rather helper and the one who does not help means not a friend.How selfish we are in choosing or making friend like we are doing a business deal.

Wow!! I had never thought about it this way. You are right; it seems as if we are selfish when choosing a friend. How sad. =(
ReplyDeleteI understand what you meant. In some cases, friends can come and go so easy. But we always have one or more that stick with us because they want to be in part of our lives. Good friends are someone who will always by our sides for the good and bad and we also consider them a part of our family. However, we do have some friends who are good for nothing; we choose to be in their life because we know we can inspire them to change for the better or simply we enjoy their company. At the end of the day, it is up to us to decide which friend is worth stuck around or letting some friends go when the situation changes like moving away to a new country.
ReplyDeleteWell, this saying reminds me of a verse in the bible that says "a friend shows himself to be a friend." So actions determine whether we consider a person to be a friend or not.
ReplyDeletewow. I have yet to learn on how to be a good friend. Thank you for the posts and comments.
