Friend?

Friendship is a single soul dwelling in two bodies. - Aristotle
But it seems like one body is betraying the other.

I have friends in overalls whose friendship I would not swap for the favor of the kings of the world - Thomas A. Edison
But would your friends think the same?

The only way to have a friend is to be one. – Ralph Waldo Emerson
But it seems like one has become two

It is one of the blessings of old friends that you can afford to be stupid with them. – Ralph Waldo Emerson
So stupid until they step you all over.

Since there is nothing so well worth having as friends, never lost a chance to make them – Francesco Guicciardini.
Make but then broken.

Without wearing any mask we are conscious of, we have special face for each friend. – Oliver Wendell Holmes.
So special that it betrays you.

When a friend is in trouble, don’t annoy him by asking if there is anything you can do. Think up something appropriate and do it. - Edward W. Howe
The damage has been done by your friend, what your friend can do about it?

the problem is not getting a new friend, but to get back your best friend..
as what u want, u still want this friendship back right?
try your best..ok?
the bond of real friends are tough and strong.. show it to me that what i say is right..


to yumi aka ere,
this friendship is worthy.. u may not know what happened, but this is my advise to u,
never be a destroyer, it doesn't contribute anything.. thanks..

When you witness something unpleasant and everytime you see your friend, the unpleasant vision auto-plays by itself.

All I can say is let time wash away the unpleasant vision and remain the good ones. But no matter what, things will never be the same again.

in my opinion,
all relationships have to seek for the Balance..
i do believe its always the closest that hurts or betray you.. for they're the one who know u most...
it's back to the human nature.. whr every human are 'selfish'.. but its the level of selfishness vs everything surrounding us..
everything happen for a reason / with a reason..n thats whr we learn to stay at the balance..
whether its acceptable or whether its to withdraw from the relationship.. it takes time n at times communication.. its never easy... its just life....

gr9cech9 that is always the case because you care too much bout your friend. If it's someone you don't really know, you are totally fine with it.

Balancing is never and easy task as I've written in one of my previous article. Being selfish yes, but there are certain extend selfless exist as well.
