True friends are like angels sent by God to us. They
might have one or two flaws but their right doings always supersedes their
wrong doings. Always understand that there is a reason you are not the only one
on earth. You need people to survive cos you cannot do it all by yourself. Friendships
are like relationships, communication keeps it going, communication keeps it
growing and communication makes it stronger day in day out.
In every relationship, girlfriends/boyfriends/wives/husbands/friends
start getting a bit jealous when their significant other/partner/friend starts
getting close to another person. They are jealous not because they are selfish
or because there is something wrong with them, on the contrary. They are
jealous because they care. They are jealous because they are sacred of losing
you. And if care is not taken, they will start slipping away without you even
noticing.
There are certain people that you can't afford to lose.
God made us meet certain people for a reason. Some relationships are destined
by God. Same also goes for friendships. Some say "why be so jealous when
it's not as if we are dating or in a relationship". The truth is, everyone
who truly cares about you is emotionally attached to you. When you are sad,
they are sad. When you are happy they are happy. Be it your
friend/boyfriend/girlfriend/wife/husband/family. Anyone who truly cares about you
will be emotionally attached to you.
You need to always appreciate those in your life and
understand they are of great value to you. In every relationship or friendship
before a person walks away, there are always some clear signs or warning, you
just have to be observant enough to see those signs and warnings. Anything that
means something to you, anything that adds value to you or that makes you happy,
you need to hold on to that thing. When some people slip away it might be very
difficult to get them back. One question, are they worth losing or are they
worth fighting for? If they are worth
fighting for or not worth losing then try not to lose them. Try and appreciate
them. Those little things you think that do not matter are the things that
actually matter the most and when you see that you have lost them, try as much
as possible to get them back cos it'll be your loss if you lose them.
Remember, some friends are angels sent to us by God. However,
keep this adage in mind "show me your friend and I will tell you who you
are". Pray before choosing your friends and also choose them wisely. Ask
God for true friends cos they are priceless. Like a pastor once said, it is not
actually ‘’show me your friend and I will tell you who you are’’ it is ‘’show
me your friend and I will tell you your future’. Just like relationships,
friendships either make or break you. Remember being friends with someone is a
choice. Choose friends that make you not break you. Choose friends that challenge you to be a
better person. Choose friends that make you laugh. Choose friends that help you
build and not destroy. Choose friends
that you can trust and rely on. Just by your smile or laugh or a few words, a
true friend could sense when something is wrong. Choose friends that understand
you. Choose friends that accept you for who you are.
Remember the bible says "watch and pray". Watch
those you choose as friends, pray before choosing anyone as a friend. Friends
break or make you. Choose wisely. Be in the right company always. Appreciate
those in your life and always understand that it is those little things that we
think do not count or matter are the things that counts and matters most.
Finally, also ensure that you are a true
friend to someone cos the value of a true friend is priceless.
