Choose your friends wisely

Việt Văn |

Since childhood, her parents taught her to choose friends who are similar to her, and she followed the same principle as "birds of a feather flock together". But when she grew up, she saw differently. Playing with friends who shared the same interests and personalities was both an advantage and an obstacle. The advantage was that she could easily find sympathy and share in work and life, not to mention having warm moments. And she thought that way of life would help her walk peacefully in life.

But the real difficulty arose when she joined a big project and had to work with partners who were completely different from what she had been used to. They were more intense, more daring, and also much colder and more pragmatic than she was. And she had to adjust herself to survive in the whirlpool of pragmatism. She had to calculate more, talk less, and control her emotions as much as possible. Of course, she felt more mature and more confident.

Her younger sister, who was educated in the same "furnace", has always only liked to hang out with people who are similar to her and of the same class. The other day, when preparing the offering for her grandmother's death anniversary, she advised her younger sister to get out of her comfort zone, to expand her relationships, to hang out with people who are different from her, even people with completely opposite personalities, to develop herself. Her younger sister confessed that it was her family's orientation that made her do many things that were not natural, but as if something had been pre-installed in her brain, pre-programmed - it was someone else's will, not her own. Her younger sister said that sometimes she felt like she was holding the steering wheel, not driving. It was the people sitting in the back seat, including her parents, who were driving the car. They told her to go this way or that way, but she didn't dare to argue back, for fear of going the wrong way, especially when, according to prejudice, the majority is often right.

After listening, she sighed and told her sister that no one can live her life for her. So live in harmony with nature, but always be alert. The most terrible sentence that always haunted her was that the person died at the age of 25 but was not buried until he was 70.

You may not have to live a glamorous life, but live a life you will have no regrets about later.

Listening to the two sisters talking back and forth, the uncle chuckled: People always live in the environment, so choose your friends wisely. A good friend is someone who always appears when you are in trouble, is ready to listen and give you good advice. A good friend always loves you and never abandons you.

For me, there are many different types of friends: work friends, drinking friends, hanging out friends, confiding friends... and of course, sex friends!
