No one in the world can live the whole life alone without friends and family. A family makes a person’s life to be warm and protected. Friends make life to be colorful and interesting. People choose a friend based on the character traits to know if that friend is right for them. A good friend to me is a trustworthy person who I can talk about everything to. Also he/ she have to be honest with me. Being generous to everyone is one of the important personalities that I look for at a friend.
As my opinion, the most important attribute that a friend has to have is trustworthy. I think I am so lucky for having a friend who is extremely trusty. She and I have been friend since we were kids. We have kept our friendship for 10 years and now we still are good friends. I trust her with all my heart. She is the one who keeps all my secrets. She would never tell others about my private stories. Whenever I feel sad or not at ease, I come to her to release my sorrow. I have never seen her breaking out her promise to any one. If she makes a promise with you, she will do as she said. Everyone likes her. Thank for being friend with her, I am now being a trustworthy person too! I do not think a person who has no others’ trust can be a good friend. How can people make friend with you if you are not trustworthy? How do you feel if you tell a friend your secrets and he/she tell it to others? People who do not have this trait will not have many friends. No one can rely upon them. It is not necessary if you are not beautiful or intelligent, but it is important for you to be trustworthy!
You and I are friends only when we are honest to each other. Besides being trustworthy, an honest person is also a friend that I look for. I can not make friend with a person who always lies to me. There is no relationship existing when people are always lying. When I was in eighth grade, I have seen my friend did break out her friendship with a girl because that girl many times did not tell my friend the truth. She said that she felt she was not respected by that girl and she did want a friendship with people who liked lying. I agree with her! Lying does not only make people disrespected but also not appreciate the friendship. An unshakeable friendship will be built if friends are honest to each other.
Is there anyone who wants to make friend with a selfish friend? I can say certainly that no one wants to be friend with a self- loving person. Friends mean people trust, honest to each other. Also they have to know how to share and give things without waiting for render. Tiffany is a pretty, rich student who is good at all subjects at school. However, she has few friends. Her classmates said that although she has everything nice, she never shares them with others. Whenever her classmates ask her to help them with homework or borrow her something, she refuses it with a bunch of sensible reasons. Everyone has asked her for once, twice, or more then they notice how her personality is. They admire her because she studies well, but they do not want to be her friend. Being selfish builds a wall between you and others. Therefore, friends and generosity can not exist in the same relationship.
I do not need my friend has to be beautiful, rich, or good at all subjects at school, but they have to be trustworthy, honest, and generous to me and people. I wonder that I am the luckiest person in the world because all my friends have those character traits. That is why we can keep our friendship longer than others. A true friend is not the one who has a good look but a beautiful soul.
