Friendship
Ladies and gentlemen, today I would like to touch on the topic friendship.
Sometimes you wonder how you first knew your close friends, and thinking back on your first impressions on the person makes you laugh at yourself.
However, at rare times, when friends become too close or "so you think", you tend to rely on your closest friend or your so-called "closest friend". No doubt friends are there for each other and help each other, but over-relying might cause some devastating effects. I have a few examples which I will elaborate at a later stage.
What happens if 1 of you are not that strong mentally? you tend to rely on your friend once something trivial happens. And what is the effect? Additional and unnecessary stress on that stronger friend. Well I wouldnt say dont help the weaker one.. but when he/she keeps repeating the same mistakes over and over again, you will get sick and tired of him/her. Not only that, people around you get affected. This is what we term as EMK (Emo Kids).
Difference is some ppl had a smooth-sailing life and dont see life the way some others do, and also take things for granted most of the time. This does not apply to every case though, there are some rich or fortunate ppl who are constantly helping others in need, my respect goes out to them..
Also, jealously and expectations of your friend is common but don't overdo it. Do things willingly without expecting any return.
Sometimes you may ask why are your "friends" avoiding you or you simply can't click well with your friends? There are many answers depending on individuals, it could be you did something wrong / insensitive, or even simply just cant reach the same frequency! However, not having the same frequency doesn't mean you can't be friends with that person, believe it or not, somewhere out there someone will definitely share your same wavelength.. you just have to be patient though as not everyone have the luck.
Words may seem harsh at times or too blunt. But your friends won't do it without a good reason! Take a step back and reflect at your behaviour.. be more sensitive to your surroundings.. think back, are you giving them more trouble than having fun with them?
Lastly, comes the painful decision. Do you have the will to finally change for the good? Are you able to tolerate your friends if they keep committing the same mistakes? Will you leave? Will you hold on? Every individual has their own thinking, what's yours?
Mine:
Im a straightforward person, and will definitely go all the way to help my friend within my means. However, I'm one that will get tired easily if the problems persists and there is no improvement. Might not be a good idea to lend a helping hand at that point of time, you will have to let it go or give it some space and time
