tips to maintain friendship

People always have a small number of real friends and numerous acquaintances in their lives.Like any other relationship,a good friendship takes times and effort to build and cultivate.It just like a seedling ,first you plant it and then you need to care for it and feed nutrients now and then.You observe and appreciate it as seedling gradually grows into something flourishing and beautiful.It is necessary to spend time and effort in maintaining a friendship so as to grow a very good friendship.Here are some useful tip for you
1)encourage and inspire your friend frequently.A true friend will have the ability of steering the other one out of difficult circumstances by encouraging the other one to make responsible decision and motivate them to be the best person.
2)Be a good listener.When a friend is telling you something,sometimes he or she is not looking for an opinion or advice but rather a sounding board to vent to.People always know what they have to do and need to do,but you should know it would be positive for them to express an uninterrupted idea in handling the situation.
3)Be witty when pointing out a friend mistakes.There are times when people may not be aware of their mistakes or may left what they did is reasonable.Taking a sincere and honest attitude instead of harping on the situation until you are blue in the face,otherwise you will end up with both hurt feeling and a possible loss of the friendship.
4)Share happiness and sorrows with your friend and be the shoulder for the not so good times.



JUST BE YOURSELF

DEAREST MAMA

I know I have been giving you trouble,
since I started kicking you,
when I was demanding bottle milk in the middle of the night at two,
when I was being fussy at seven,
when I was demanding for things at ten,
when I was asking you stupid questions
the times I was twelve giving you heartaches and migraines,
now that I'm a teen...
BUT
there must be somethings good in me,
even if you do not think so,
I maybe nasty sometimes but it does not mean
I take everythings granted,
i just want you to know and understand that
I am thankful to have you as my mom even though
I am not sure if you are thankful to have me as a daughter,
I feel very sorry about that....
