A couple of elders were asked about how could they bore their marriage for so many years. They answered they were brought up in a time when if something broke down, they would try yo fix it instead of changing it for a new one. Friendship is conceived under the same guidelines; or al last, it should be.
Nowadays, people are usually let down by friends, losing contact quickly and eve becoming bored. That's because we initiate a relationship wondering what it would provide us. Maybe this is the first mistake. Perhaps our relationship will go on marvellousy if we focus thoughts in what we ourselves could give, without expecting a return.
Indeed, the most important things we should show in friendship is, maybe, tolerance, confidence and, why not, a smile for the darkest moments. It is said that a friend is a treasure to keep, but also a treasure to look after. That a friend is like a garden could be a better comparison. Love him and take care of him.
The same would definitely come back to you.
