Friends can help you go over some difficulties that you could hardly handle on your own, friends can chat with you when you feel lonely, friends can make you know who you really are when you are overconfident. So many hold the idea that the more friends you have, the more colorful your life will be. Is it definitely right?
Of course not. We cannot deny that, without friends, our lives will be terrible. But what if we have too many friends? Friends do help us when we are in trouble, vice versa, we do help my friends! I am not speaking in a selfish way, I just have a realistic thought. If we have too many friends, we have got to face many phone calls every day, we have got to spend too much time to keep in touch with them, however do not have enough time for our work to make it well, even do not have enough time to be with our family. Is it a good idea?
Imagine that I am working on something which is needed tomorrow, suddenly my friends visit me from time to time, just want to chat with me for a while, which bothers me a lot. Think about it, how many of us have been faced with the familiar problems? And then you will probably agree with me.
Besides, some friends with bad qualities may have many bad habits, which may influence us in a negative way. If that, we would rather not have too many friends because we can hardly have the chance to known of every one of our friends very well.
So, I think that a colorful life does not lie in how many friends you have, but lies in the quality of your friendship. Have some good friends who can help you, understand you, and advice you. It is superior to having too many friends, most of whom are just so-so with you. Addition, in this way you can spare more time to be with your family and your good friends, you career also. It will provide a peace life without doing too much you don’t want to.
Actually,when you have one or two true friends in your lifetime ,you will be really lucky and happy.
ReplyDeleteIt is true that we should focus on the quality of our friendship rather than on the quantity. Like in everything else, BALANCE is the key. We should have sufficient close friends to walk through life with us, but we cannot have too many casual friends or we will end up having no personal time for ourselves or our family members.
