Happy Weekend darlings 🌸🌸🌸
Hope you had a great week? Even if you didn't, the weekend is here and an opportunity for you to make the best of it!
Will be sharing on “Friendship and What Really Matters” today. Sure you're gonna enjoy the read...
Friends are an important part of most people’s lives. Friends are gifts and they are a part of our lives for one reason or the other. Even research has recently shown that having friends increases our chances of being happy.
Friendships are among the most important relationships you’ll have in your life. Many of your favourite memories probably include times you’ve spent with friends.
Truth is, friends come, friends go. Not every person that is in your life today will be a part tomorrow. It's really hard to admit, there are some that will be there forever,there are some that will leave you, some you will have to let go of for one reason or the other.
Whichever way it is, one thing is important, which is : for every friend you have and for the moments you spend with them, an indelible mark should be left, moments that will forever be cherished. Friendship entails reciprocity. It's not a one-man affair, what you give is what you should expect.
Essentials of Friendship :
I read a book a long time ago, “The 5 Love Languages” by Gary Chapman and I must say that the book has helped my view on friendship.
The book explains that for every person, there are one or two love languages unique to him or her. That is, one or two ways in which you like “love” to be expressed to you, “love” here in the generic form… Not just between partners or couples but also in friendship.
According to Gary Chapman, the 5 love languages are: Words of Affirmation, Gifts, Acts of Service, Quality Time and Physical Touch.
The essence of drawing our attention to this is to emphasize what really matters in friendship. If you are investing so much in friendship and you're getting nothing in return, it's best to sit back and understand what really matters.
You need to understand what your friend(s) loves, what he or she appreciates more. (What's your love language?😉😝)
Asides all of these, your circle of friends should be those who truly care and love you, those who support you through thick and thin, those who force you to level up, those who are not envious of your achievements but rather encourage you to do more, those who dare to tell you the truth whether it will hurt or not(because truly, we need this often 😁), those you are happy being with because happiness is key yo!!! 💃💃💃
The list goes on… .
What's your definition of friendship? What matters most to you in friendship?
Kindly drop your comments. Will love to hear from you.
Cheers to the weekend 🍻🍻🍻

ReplyDeleteGreat read! Frienship is pretty much everything love is. All be it, they all come in their different values. For example, old friends and like Gold and new friends like Diamond. No one says because they found Diamond then they have to throw away Gold. The first basic things about friendship is knowing and respecting your Gees.. Thanks for the article
