friendship takes a lot of work. it takes more than 2 hands to clap. it is dependent on many things; sometimes the timing, sometimes the occasion, sometimes the things u say, sometimes the things u do, sometimes the circumstances, sometimes the mood of your friends, sometimes even the weather... lol.
i think i've also learnt that friendship can be very fragile. strong friendships don't come by easily. they are built over time. but u can't build it alone.
i guess i've also learnt a few lessons abt friendship;
Never take friends for granted
Never backstab, spread rumours or gossip about friends (sometimes concern is something we use to justify gossip)
Building a strong friendship is more than just give and take.
in my friendships, i have learnt it will take a humble attitude to admit a mistake, a forgiving spirit to those who have hurt u, an extra mile of kindness to care out-of-the way, a sensitive soul to allow space for friends to grieve, to be there, and to taste happiness and sorrow together, a grateful heart to cherish the friends u have made and..................... a big heart to be a friendly person!
friendship is about your friends.
how much u value your friends will be how much u value their friendship. If friends are your priority, friendship will also be a priority to u.
For me, friendship or friends comes in 3rd; after God and family. i wish to keep it that way. if next time i got husband...hmmm...maybe he also 3rd! LOL.
