Friends, I tell you,
There are many friends but there are few friends you can call your own.
Let me proof this with points

A point,
Those who praise you always, making you feel you have no guile, making you feel you are an angel, dropped from heaven.
Are not your friend, they are the enemies you chose to walk with.
They are happily digging a early grave for you.
I tell you as a true friend, you can not always be right.
It is not all you do that warrant praises, sometimes, you need frank rebuke.
Choose friend among friends.
One that tell you the truth and help you to get better.

Another point,
Friends that see you, hail you, praise you, come around you, when things are very rossy. When things take a shift, they also make a shift, are not your friends. They are minus to you.
They are those who work with you not for you but for their life benefits.
Choose friend among friends, choose one who stands with you in storm and in peace. Who help you find ways, when you lost in the wilderness. They have good minds and do not want you for what you have. They are friends in court.

Another point,
Friends that condemn you at slightest mistake, mock your failure, clown your disappointment, gossip your weakness and even grieve your success, are not your friend. They are foes masquerading as friends, they will bring you woes
Chose friend among friends,
That help you rise when you fall, give hope when despair cloud you, help strengthen your weakness, rejoice at your success. The friend that reduce your self worth, belittle your self image is not worth you.
Choose out of many

Another point
Friends that wish your goodness, blessing, beauty, success and more were theirs are not your friends. They are envious, they grieve in their closet when they hear of your good news.
What are you still doing with such. If he cannot joy for you when you succeed, he is not your friend. Choose those who love your success and celebrate it in truth.

Another
Friends that can do anything to get what they want.
Separate from them quick, before they hurt you for their pleasure. They are not reliable, they are friends weak in heart, they don't mind hurting you to get some cash, they don't mind betraying you to get a connection. Desperate friends are vulnerable, they can harbour evil for you.

Many many many among friends but the good thing is, you have the self right to make your choice
Choose your friend
Choose a friend that is going on same path with you.
Choose a friend that adds to your life
Choose friend that will help build you
Choose a friend that will help make you and not mar you.
Choose a friend that rebuke you when you go wrong and celebrate your success.
Choose a friend whose influence on you is positive.
A friend that stick close than brother.
Choose your friend wisely
Don't rush into friendship with any
Take time to know who he or she is before you celebrating him or her as your friend.
Choose your friend.
