How to be a TRUE FRIEND?
Tips:
1. Befriend with yourself and accept others.
----- how can you be a friend to others if you are not a friend to yourself? you just need to accept yourself first. we are not perfect. if you learn to accept yourself you have now the position to accept others. Accept them as you accept yourself. remember, we are just humans so if they made mistakes forgive them. take them for who they really are.
2. make time.
----- make time for relationships. sometimes we dont give them time to our friends because we are busy but we should put them as one of our priorities because maybe one day there will be a time that your friend will feel that he or she is not important anymore because you don't give time to her or him.
3. be a good listener and understand each other.
----- "friends are those rare people who ask how we are and then wait to ear the answer."
sometimes we dont really listen to our friends. a true friend is not like that. we should listen to what our friends say because they are the one who knows you better and knows whats best for you. understand each other also. do not accuse your friend. listen to her first and understand her.
4. enrich each others life.
----- "friendship is a treasured gift, and every time i talk with you i feel as if im getting richer and richer."
true friends provide value to each others. she or he wants the best for you and what will make you happy.
5. trust each other.
----- "confidence is the foundation of friendship. if we give it, we will receive it."
we should trust each other. if we are a true friend we will share each others secrets, problems and many more. we believe that our friend will keep it till the day she or he dies.
6. say the truth, do not lie.
----- a true friend is not afraid of saying the truth,even if its not convenient to the ones who hear it. a true friend cares about the persons wellness that he cant afford to let him live wrongly. always hear each others best interest in your heart and be honest to them.
7. know the right time to do things.
----- sometimes being a friend means mastering the art of timing. there is time for silence. a time to let go and allow people to hurl themselves into their own destiny. and a time to prepare to pick up the pieces when its all over.
8. leverage others potential.
----- "my best friend is the one who brings out he best of me."
a true friend wants to see people around them live up to their maximum potential. you can do this by helping your friends recognize and develop their personal strengths.
9. see the positive side of others.
----- " a true friend is someone who thinks that you are a good egg even though he knows that you are slightly cracked."
a true friend knows you good enough to see your weaknesses but he still believes in your potential. to become a true friend, you should believe that your friends are good on the inside no matter how bad their outward appearance might be. its by this belief that you can sincerely encourage them.
10. be present in difficult times.
----- "true friendship isn't about being their when its convenient; its about being there when its not.
this is the best of true friendship. fake friends will be with you when you are happy since they want to share your happiness. but fake friends wont be with you in difficult times. only true friends will choose to be with you in difficult times. so, to be a true friend, be with your friends in their dark moments. be with them even if you need to let go your own convenient. it may be the most difficult tip of all, but its the mark of true friendship.
a friendship is a promise kept in the heart so when everything is unclear a true friend says: "just remember three things, im here, still here with or without beer.
dont ever be angry on your friends, because up to the last moments of life, what hurts most are not the words of enemies but the SILENCE OF FRIENDS.
im not a bad person, im just a girl, a simple girl that would love to break the neck of those girls/guys who trouble my friends.
