FRIENDSHIP

Nothing in this life ought to be taken for granted; all occurrences are for certain reasons. Every occurrence stands out as the only possible outcome; the only one out of the numerous imaginable outcomes to have occurred.

Coming into this world of ours, paths have either been crossed or ran into. We have come across faces, faces that have either remained as so or have been converted into friendly subjects, what I view as the essence of the life we live in.

For each man or woman we come across, it is expected of us to create room for love; undo hate and maintain peace, and in creating these; restraints should be applied into the sustenance of the status quo.

I’ve always had this notion at heart that being friendly entails freedom within the heart and soul of the person stretching out the hand of friendship. One only acts hostile when one feels insecure and hence builds defense walls; walls put in place to keep out perceived foes or possible threats.

Lastly, I also have the notion that one should have within ones might the strength to turn an unknown or newly met person into a friend. We should also have the strength to convert an enemy into a friend as well, and not the weakness of relinquishing a friend unto enmity.
