Beautiful Reflections on Friendship

Having something as important as friendship will be one of the best things you can enjoy in life. It is curious to think about how many times we do not realize it and underestimate the need for this value. Sometimes we do not stop to think that there are people who are always by our side, asking for nothing in return and we do not reflect on what would happen if it were not in this way. Today I would like to share with you some reflections that talk about it and that will also make you think of all your closest friends and how they can make you happy. I hope you enjoy them.

True friends expect nothing in return

It is easy to call yourself a friend but being one is a test that must be overcome every day. It is much easier to call anyone a friend, but finding out if it really is, maybe one of the most difficult things we have to live. It is said that the best friends are those who share the most beautiful moments of your life, but the truth is that there is nothing further from reality.

Because the best friends are in the most painful moments, the saddest and darkest, the worst that one can go through. They are there to share your pain and not to let you sink into it. They are there to get you out of the tunnel, even when you don't want them to, because you have lost all hope in yourself and others. But they always believe in you, even when you have stopped doing it. They do not care about your foolishness, your defects, or the mistakes they have made, they endure the damage you can do to them and they show you how lucky you are that they are there.

True friends never expect to receive anything in return, other than your own well-being. Generally, one cannot say that there are many people with such feelings. But if you have just one, then you are definitely lucky. And definitely, that someone deserves your effort back, even if he never really expects it.

Caring for friendship is not easy

All the time we tell our circle of friends that we will always be together and that nothing can separate us. We say it confidently and without thinking much about tomorrow, actually. Then time passes and decisions have to be made. There are promises where we say that we will keep in touch and then, little by little, they are forgotten. Then you look around and if you are lucky you realize there is a person or two with whom you would never cut ties.

It is not easy to take care of something as fragile as friendship. There are so many things that can get in the way and so many events that can come up. It may seem unfair, but that's the way life works to test what's really important. And one is not whom to question it, because you can't have control over things like that anyway.

It is clear that only those who deserve to have a true friend, are able to keep it. Or to recover it if they have lost it. And none of this can be easy, but what is really worth it? Friendship is so valuable and many times we are not even aware of it.

Be there for someone you love

It is known that when someone really cares about you, not because of what they do or what they have, but because of who you are, you will be able to see for their well-being without stopping to think even about yourself. When you have a friend and you know that the friendship between them is something sincere and true, you will do it without stopping to think things through. Many people will not understand why you do it or how you can achieve it, without even thinking twice. That's the nice thing about knowing you've found someone you can count on. That he can count on you too, no matter what happens.

The most special test between two or more people who share a bond is to be there for and by the people you love. It doesn't matter if you're going to get into trouble or even if they don't thank you afterward, because they're going through a difficult time. You will stay and you will know how to have patience with them.

It takes a lot of courage to do something like this because unfortunately not many are used to giving everything without getting something in return. Even if they just expect a simple thank you. It really takes good friends to feel able to do something like this, even if your heart is hurt. It is a painful test, but also one of the most beautiful that exists.

Friendship is complicated but also wonderful.

When the roads part

There are friendships that are from childhood and that makes someone become like a brother to us. There are others that arise a little later and remain with the passage of time. There are friendships that even arise after tense and complicated relationships, which only give us the opportunity to get to know the other person more deeply. All of them become something special that we want to last forever. But there is a very famous saying that nothing is forever and sadly, most of the time it turns out to be true.

Sometimes friendship ends too. Due to the passage of time, due to the presence of distance or due to misunderstandings. One cannot be prepared to face the moment when the paths have to be separated. That moment in which we all have to make a decision and follow our own dreams because we cannot always share them with others.

It is sad to think that there are friends that we will never see again or that we will only meet again, after several years. But maybe it is also necessary because you can only realize who your most valuable friends are when you have passed all the obstacles that life puts you in order to keep them. And maybe that's the prize that is really worth it. There are people you would never forget, but you are not sure if they could forget you. And there are friends you may not think about too much, but they may always keep you in mind. Very curious things happen as time goes by.

Paths that separate and rejoin. Roads that fork forever. Paths that are lost and rediscovered one or more times.

Did you like the reflections I shared with you? If so, please share them with those special people who have always supported you through thick and thin, and let them know how important they are to you. Remember that friendship is always something we need to be happy and that a friend is something that should not be underestimated.

If someone really wants to offer you their sincere friendship, they will thank you for having a gesture like this with him.
