CONTINUOUS WRITING; QUALITY OF BEST FRIENDS
"Friend in need is a friend indeed". This proverb really portrays the precise meaning of a best friend. It also implies that not all our friends is a real truly best friend. We may wonder about the accurate meaning of best friends even we have all friends around. One may say that friends who always go to the school canteen with him is his best friends. Another may say that friends who always come to his house and study with him is his best friends. Thus, we may recognize best friends from their quality along their closeness as a companion beside us such as loyal, caring and helpful.
First, loyal can be categorized as one quality of best friends which undoubtedly important to be considered in selecting the one who can be entitled as a best friend. Loyal is defined as stick to someone regardless any situation or matter whether as a family member, husband and wife, or as a best friend. A loyal best friend will not say something bad of us behind our backs or back-stab us. He will keep our secret in his heart and lock it tightly. For example, if we did something wrong in the school and the rumours becomes as a wildfire, he will remain calm and always back up us.
Second, the quality of best friends also can be pointed to the word 'caring'. Caring means a sense of concern and care about us, in every single thing occurs in our daily life. Sometimes, he cares about us more than himself. A caring best friend will sit in a chair beside our bed the whole night when we are sick. In another occasion, he voluntarily cooks a special meal for us when we do not have any appetite due to our sickness. He also can walk together with us to reach our home from school merely to make sure of our safety.
Third, the quality of best friends also can be notified from their helpful manner. Helpful can be defined as a habit of helping others almost all the times without hoping for any reward or wage. Someone who likes to help and assist others is likely suitable to be listed as our best friends. How to know that he is really a helpful person. The answer can be solved by observing all friends around. For instance, a best friend is always willing to teach us if we do not understand about the subject with his full commitment and energy. He also voluntarily treats us lunch at the school canteen and shares his meal when we forgot to bring our pocket money. All these examples may suit the quote that says “It is better to be helpful than harmful.”
In fact, there are many other qualities can be matched with 'best friends' or a 'best friend' such as honest, kind, friendly, brave, fun and hilarious and others. And, having best friends with all these decent and remarkable qualities is as a luck in our life. Hence, we have to be a grateful person too towards our best friends. We must not forget that best friends also are human like us. We also must love them as our best friends and treat them as the same as they did to us. This is because everything in this world happens based on a principle of 'give and take'.
In sum, best friends may be differed from the usual friends we meet everyday by their several qualities as a best friend. Indeed, this friendship is very meaningful and priceless. They make our life worthwhile. It is really like a diamond in the sky or a pearl in the midst of white sand along the beach. Hopefully, each of us has found one with a long lasting friendship.
