The value of Friendship
As I have noticed, going through life experiences, friendship has a quality about it. And this quality depends deeply upon your attitude about it. If you don’t trust each other, the friendship takes on a facade. Obviously when two people lie to each other that friendship is greatly sacrificed for the individuals ego, credit, and outward gain.
Having gone through both types of friendship I’ve realized that in this day and age, everyone is out for themselves. In very few friendships is the other person put before the individual. However, when this is achieved both individuals are divinely happy for each other. There is compromise, and agreements and healthy argumentation.
Now, however, I find that they relationship I’m creating, whether they be online of not, are totally selfless on my part. Whereas before my relationships were to protect me, very selfishly. I even used people to raise my status. This is written with sorrow, but also with joy, for I know that I am not what I was. I have true friends now. No need to be false.
