Friendship is an affective relationship that occurs between two or more people in which affinity occurs and through which individuals share values, beliefs and special moments.
What is most valued in friendship is the loyalty, commitment, support and sincerity that exists between friends.
Friendship is like a plant that we cultivate throughout life until it develops and bears many fruits since in life we can never be alone because we were born to socialize, not to be isolated from each other, but sometimes life is us makes bad moves to get rid of those friendships that we have and that we do not achieve specify
Inspired by some thoughts of some thinkers I would like to highlight the following phrases and paraphrase some of them
For example: the multifaceted Charles Chaplin Actor, humorist, composer, producer, screenwriter, director and writer considered one of the great myths of cinema. Apr 16. 2021 said about friendship the following:
“I need someone who comes to fight by my side without being called. Someone friend enough, how to tell me the truths that I don't want to hear, even knowing that I can get irritated. For this reason, in this world of indifferent people, I need someone who believes in that mysterious, discredited and almost impossible thing: FRIENDSHIP! "
(Charlie Chaplin)
This humorist and writer described sincere friendship as a disinterested value of someone who came to him willing to fight alongside him to do good for him both when he was acting badly and when he was doing it well without looking at any precise affectation at the time because the important thing was that It will help you to look at truths or lies in that world that many believed impossible to have a great friend because, currently, many people have false friends who see them make mistakes and what they do is say things to increase their egocentricity that will never help them get out of the world. error
Similarly, Oscar Fingal O'Flahertie Wills Wilde was an Irish writer, novelist, playwright and poet who also limited the friendship by giving it the following meaning:
“Yes, love is fine in its own way, but friendship is a much higher thing. There is really nothing in the world more noble and rare than a true friendship. "
( Oscar Wilde)
Oscar Wilde considered that love was well considered as a distinction in each action as everything that is capable of satisfying, directly or indirectly, a human need, but from his point of view he saw friendship as something much greater as something honorable and noble which was sincere or truthful, this playwright describes true friendship as someone who demonstrates a fair attitude towards the truth where there is no deception, as well as seeing it as an act of bravery
Also Aristotle who was one of the most famous philosophers of ancient Greece, who lived in the 4th century BC. C. He was interested in disciplines as diverse as biology, philosophy and politics, he gave a great and deep spiritual meaning to a true friendship stating:
"Friendship is a soul that inhabits two bodies, a heart that inhabits two souls."
Aristotle
Some consider the soul as the essence of people, that which forges their identity that is a gift from God that makes each individual unique.
In this sense, Aristoteles conceptualized friendship as the highest and most worthy essence of one person towards another where truly people reveal their true identity and that makes them unique as essential and sublime people.
History has also given a noble meaning to sincere friendship, because although it is true that today this bond or this virtue has been deteriorated by hypocrisy and betrayal, it is also true that maintaining a sincere friendship at this time is having a great treasure
God himself gave great importance to friendship and gave a very strong honor to that bond of love when he expressed the following:
Proverb 17:17
"A friend loves at all times, and a brother is born for time of trouble."
(RVR1960)
It is for this reason that whoever has a friend has a treasure, said in a colloquial way by many which means to refer to true friendship since the friend in times of storm, pain or sadness, takes refuge in that person who is not his brother. but he is his best friend
Dear community, friends have an incalculable value, in our life, for this reason we must respect them, love them, advise them when it is necessary, a friend always advises looking for the good of the other, a friend is at all times next to the person he considers his friend and is not opportunistic or interested, since there are certainly "friends" who lead to ruin but there are friends who are more faithful than a brother.
Proverbs 18:24
There are friends who lead to ruin,
and there are friends more faithful than a brother.
(RVR1960)
¡FRIENDSHIP MORE THAN VIRTUE IS A TREASURE!
