survive as an island" God has so wired us that
we so interconnected to each other to achieve
fulfillment .well this is circled around
friends .friends share your brightest moment
and brighten your ugly times ,If you have one
good friend, you are one of the few lucky
persons in the world, who is optimistic that
when things get wrong, there is always a
shoulder to lean on. People who
have friends whom they trust and depend are
more likely to live happier. They are also able
to have a better sense of their
place in the universe in other words, a
sense of belongingness. Studies show that
people who have strong friendships not only

likely to enjoy life, have stronger immune
system, have better self-esteem and are
less likely to suffer from depression.
Do you have at least one friend whom you
know you can call in the middle of the night
if ever you are on a tough situation?
If you do, you are in good shape! If you
don’t – this may help you.
After reading many articles on friendships
and relationships, here are some of the
most important ways to keep a friend, and
how to make your friendship last longer.
1. Praise and compliment whenever
necessary – Sometimes that is the
best remedy for a bad hair day! So, go
ahead shower your friend with lots of
praises, but only if you mean very
well.
2. Listen and then listen again –
oftentimes just being there is the best moral
support you can give.
3. Go out and have fun – life is too short
not to do things together. Leave your busy
schedule a few hours and just spend some
time with your friends. It can save your sanity
and make you
feel your age again. Do something fun– for
girls/boys only!
4. Forgive each other – when you did
something wrong, let go and be willing
to ask for an apology. If your friend
asks for an apology, accept it and then
forgive each other. Learn the lesson
and then move on.
5. Keep your promises and build trust –
nothing is more discouraging if an
individual cannot be dependable. If
you said something, follow through. Be
trustworthy and true to your words.
6. Give your opinion when asked and
let them decide – it is great to give
your opinions – but only if it is asked.
If your friend needs a rude awakening,
tell the truth and if she/he takes it,
thank yourself – if not, don’t worry – it is not a
big deal!
7. Show them you care – it doesn’t
matter whether you offer to hug or give an
opinion or rather
to cook their favorite food – whatever
it is, show that you care.
8. Accept who they are – your interests,
lifestyle and opinions can be different
and varied, but accept them. People
are born to be unique.
9. Share your life – Share your dreams,
your future, your problems and who
you really are. It’s through sharing
that friendships grow.
10. Laugh together – laughing is always
the best medicine. It can take away
many wrinkles!
11. Stay in touch – whether you are
extremely busy with your family and
work, take time to say hi or hello once
in a while. Keep abreast with the
happenings in each other’s lives. Let
them know that you are still alive and kicking!
12. Thank each other – for the
friendship, the time and for knowing each
other!
13. Don’t spill any secrets – once this is
broken, you’ll likely have to start all
over again. But it is okay, life is meant
to be a learning curve.
