Friend:Someone you know,like and trust. Sometimes we have a lot of people in our circle, we say they are our friends. Many times we tolerate a lot of negativity and disloyality, but we still say that's my homie, my dog, my boy, my sistagirl. Do you ever sit back and think about the percentage of productivity these individual bring to your life? Have you weighed the pros and cons? People come into our life for a reason and season. The reason is sometime a lesson we need to learn and grow together as individuals. The season are the individual who bring nothing to your life but heartache, but you think you need them but in reality they are feeding off your love and kindness. Why do try to make lemonade by squeezing a tunip? A friend is either going to empower you, encourage you, love you unconditionally and know how to say you are wrong and move on, in love. Our lives would be so much better when we get rid of dead weight. Once you began the process,the transformation is not going to be pleasant for everyone, not to sound selfish but it's all about you! Sometimes the doors are opportunity remain close because of the individuals you call friend. Think about it and let me know what happen. You only get one life............go and impact the world! The ride will be a great adventure.

Generally, my friends come from all walks of life, from different races and religions. They even have different skin colours. I never choose my friends based on "What can you give me?" If I have to choose my friends, then I will choose someone whom I can communicate whether be it with words or no words. Someone who can adapt with circumstances and look at life with hope and love. I will try to avoid people who drag me down, negative towards life, always complaining and have so many extra baggages and insist to give you some.

to have a good friend is very difficult, for me good friend not only can give us the spirit, help us at the hardest time. but the most important must have a similarity of views on the principal thing. have a good friend who have the spiritual connection and rich, like get big bonus . who does not want? but the spiritual connection or materialistic never be my priority when i choose a best friend.
