Friends are people whom we turn to when our spirits need a lift. They are always by our side through thick and thin. They stand beside us even when we in difficulties and will fight for us if we are disappointed. Therefore, it is clear that friends play a important role in shaping who we are today. But what qualities do we need to look for in a friend?
A friend should always be caring towards you. He or she should take interest in your problems no matter how big your problem may be. A friend should be able to sit beside you and encourage you to keep your chin up even when everyone else is against you. A friend’s empathy and lovingness will also fill your worn-out soul and will make you realize how important a friend really is.
Apart from that, a friend should be an honest person. An honest friend will dissipate any worries that he or she is lying towards you. A friend’s honesty will enable you to trust his or she’s opinion when it comes to telling you the truth about yourself. For example, an honest friend will notice on your declining grades and will ask you to work harder while a dishonest friend will see it with a blind eye. Therefore, an overall improvement in yourself will be noticeable if you have an honest friend.
Moreover, a friend should be generous both emotionally and knowledge wise. A friend who is generous can be able to give emotional support. He or she should also be generous when it comes to sharing knowledge. A true friend must be always ready to help you when you are weak in certain subjects. A friend can easily guide you towards understanding the subject better as he or she is often on the same page as you.
Besides that, a friend must also be able to humour you. Humour plays essential role in making your day more lively and enjoyable. As they say, laughter is the best medicine and relieves stress.
In conclusion, friends are people we spend most of our time with. Thus, we have to be selective when it comes to choosing our friends
