Gooday everyone on Steemit, if you have ever wondered what it mean to be a good friend, here is an article of what good friendship should be. I believe you will find the article interesting and informative.
A friend is loving at all times and becomes a brother in times of trouble (Proverb 17:17). There is more to friendship than having a shoulder to cry on. In good times our friend know us, but in bad times we know our friends. A good friend is always ready to help you in the difficult phase of your life without expecting anything in return. Friendship base on the idea of reciprocity is not a true friendship because friendship is priceless irrespective of the condition.
A good friendship is like a bond so strong that no dispute can make both friends grow apart. Rather, each dispute and misunderstanding, make friendship bond grow even stronger and the power of forgiveness always prevail.
Sometime a so-called friend will see you get into trouble and then say "I saw you leading up to that and I was afraid to tell you" such friend is not worthy to be a friend, but if a real bosom friend see an impending danger, he/she will not hesitate to tell, no matter how the issue may seem, but for the interest of danger a real friend will always try everything possible to avert it.
We can be great friends to each other, despite the distance, if we really want to make the effort and also see it as unconditional in our heart. Although not everyone can be a close friend to you because friendship a thing of the heart but the value of love and care for someone closer to you is entirely different from friendship irrespective of the distance.
It is very important we show friendship in a manner of who we truely are. A good friend would guides and see you to the right path of life. A good friend make you to understand that in every aspect of your life, you are never alone and they are always there for you.
Thanks for reading, love you all.
