Who do you consider your friend? Is this the person who spends the most time with you. Or the person who is always there in your bad times? Is this a real good definition of a friend or just a real meaning of what a real friend should be?


We could see it, but anyone could do it. And this will not change the answer inside your own thoughts. What a true friend should be, do you believe yourself to be a true friend.


The reason I bring this up is because someone considered me a good friend of mine, when I paid a lot of attention, was not a very good friend to me. My definition of a friend is one that is similar to your own close thoughts and beliefs. Someone you can relate to and whom you believe in how you feel.


To expand further on this, a friend needs to be able to give and take a relationship, and not only to take or to give, but it should be the same on both sides of the spectrum. Without balance, someone is taking advantage of it.


Also, they need to be able to encourage and support their friends. There will be times where friends disagree, which is right, everyone has the right to choose for themselves. But still believing them, even if they do not care about reason, is what friendship is.


I had a friend in my special situation, let's name her Bob to protect her name. I know he was contributing a lot, but I felt bad for him too, but I felt bad for him and befriended him and helped him. I see him live with his family when he finally decides to leave. We talked and got to know each other better, and became good friends, or so I thought. It was soon discovered how much of a friend he was when he came to live with us.


Things were looking good at first, our agreement to get back on their feet and get a place for ourselves. I know that he needed some funding from his job before taking some important steps forward. A few months passed and it seemed that nothing more had happened than this, he was making himself at home, and not making much progress. He started paying rent to help speed things up and cover his expenses which he earned while living in our house.


When we were not in the same house, we were being touched. To find out how he spends his time after forming their relationship, he wants to do the best he can after living with her.


So fast forward, and now my friend and his new girlfriend were staying with us !!! I didn't know how it happened, but it did. When you believe that you are friends, you are unaware of their manipulative ways. Although it was brief that he had found his place, it still happened.


My friend and his new girl, whom I shall call xyz, break away and take all their belongings. Even though I warned her about the affair with Begin, I was still there for her. Now for a bit of tracking I got involved with my own business and brought it along as well, because I knew it could help him because it helped us. I felt it was time to change jobs, I told him.


Now I know that it seems like I have gone from here, whom we have real friends with, but this example reveals more than I could have written through personal experience. At that moment I did not realize how much of a friend he was until I started developing myself.


I tell you all this, our friends are those who are of the believer level, and that they are not constantly taking, but giving and sharing. One who considers it better for you, and has achieved your choice, and also advises you to succeed. One that can lift you up and see things for you before you can see it. One that can help you realize your full potential and help you realize that your desire is everything.


I have a friend I do not know you, or can never meet you, I believe in you. You deserve it, and therefore something better for your family. I get there. I am looking for you Or if you are already on your way, keep going. You will fail in your way if you are having a quitter attitude.


Best wishes to you, and the journey that awaits you. Hope you are a great help and an inspiration to many people. For your success…
