The art of making friends

It is said that a friend in need is a friend indeed. But who you consider is actually your friend?

Generally, during the childhood our circle of friends used to be quite close and limited. Our fellows are other children who live near us and also go to school with us. However, when we become teenagers we start to move away enrolling in different universities and distancing ourselves from the group.

For a time, we feel like knowing new people rapidly. Thus, we take advantage of every opportunity that comes our way going to a student’s parties, speaking with someone in the café or in the library, or even organizing sport teams. In my case, I’ve always been meeting new people. In fact, I’ve firm friends who are always when we need each other. Nevertheless, I consider others like acquaintance because, despite the fact that I meeting them frequently, I don’t have enough confidence in them and I only see them when I do extra activities like dancing, going hiking, and so on.

Have you ever asked yourself how your friends should be? Do you think that they should go along with your opinions? I’m sure that the real friends are the people who we speak our mind. Even in moments when we prefer listen sweet words rather than the harsh reality. After all, that is why we keep our friendship!
