It is often said that "show me your friend and i can tell who you are." This is to say that friend(s) plays a role in one's life as they can either make you or mar you. Amongst your friends there is always a friend that is more closer to you in times of need. Such a friend is One in a million and more like a bloodline to you. This is the more reason why an adage emphasised on the fact that "a friend in need is truly a friend indeed." Whenever you come across such a friend in your life, you definitely feel the sense of uniqueness of such a person around you or in your life.

In today's life it's quite a pity that many individuals have truncated their friendship and chances with a valuable person that shouldn't be waved a goodbye when not due. Many have missed their vision in life due to bad cycle of friends as their mission to achieving their vision or goal has been misdirected. Despite the fact that many friends may be harmful to your wellbeing it's advisable to filter your friends provided you want to live life to its fullest.

Friends of Bad Influences

Some friends are bad influence to you and that's the more reason it's better to have few friends than many. Even amongst the few friends you might have, there's still a crucial need to filter them to know who should be your bestie. It is often said that "in the midst of multitude of friends a man fails". Do you know some friends maybe envious of your position or status in life and feel they should have been the one in that position you're occupying right now? Due to this scenario, many have become product of downfall or failure in life in one fields of endeavour or the other. Have you ever introduced your lover to a friend who later went behind your back to mesmerise your reputation before your lover for the quest of taking your place in their life? They make mockery of your reputation before people, helpers and your lover, utilises your personal business idea and plan to start up their own business. They never wants you to surpass them in life but rather wants you to see them as "The Boss." Little do they know that life itself is just for a moment. No matter how much you earn or acquire in life to build an estate of bungalows or duplexes, you're bound sleep in a single room when it's bedtime. They do not know that nothing in life is permanent instead, they derive pleasures in vain glories for the purpose of making it seems like you're nobody before them while failing to realise that no matter the level of achievements and pride of a man, it will definitely end in a 6feet grave yard one day. This is the more reason we're expected to do good to others for us to be repaid good in return because whateversover a man sows he'll surely rip.

Friends of Good Influences

Some friends are good influence to you. Some can be more closer to you than a blood relative. They love and value your worth and will definitely never wants to see your reputation being dragged in mould. They are destiny helpers and may connect you to the next phase of life without having to accept bribe or trade your initiatives for exchange of wealth for their personal interest. They are "friends in need" and are definitely "friends in did." This sort of friendship is rare and it's expected to be maintained to the latest at all cost. Despite this, there are personal issues that is better left to yourself unsaid because you never know the kind of spirit following some good friends. That is the reason why most of your plans you discussed with someone never materialised. That Mr A is a good friend to you doesn't necessarily mean you should uncover your private life to Mr A. know that good people changes as situation does even some good people might be unfortunate to your cosmic life. Some issues are better sorted through personal prayers. Though if it's an issue that will require your friend's intervention to be sorted amicably; it's rather better to consult a well experienced older friend who is more like a father, mother, uncle or Aunt you can confide in.

Valuing Friendship

Despite the fact that there are good and bad friends, it's important you filter your friends and be more careful on what part of your personal life history you discuss with them. The notion that "all friends are the same" is not right. Though some might be halmful to your existence but there is always a way out of every situations in life. Whenever you come in contact with a true friend, please never take them for granted. Let them feel valued and loved in return as this might open your gate to your lasting success and fulfilment in life and Destiny.
