Putting Self-Love in Practice

Finding A Friend

Hello guys I'm back with my very first chapter Finding A Friend. In this chapter I will be talking about the benefits of having a friend and also the downsides to having a "friend" here I will also talk about how many believe that being alone is way better than having someone by your side because it's better to be independent, well that's wrong. To begin this chapter I will start with the downsides to end this chapter on a good note.

First I will say that while you're choosing friends you do not have to immediately give them your trust. Make sure that with time you know that person can be trusted, the person has to be understanding that you have trust issues and do not want to get hurt by someone such as a friend. They can't get angry over you being careful about who you choose to have around. Many of us have dealt with someone who isn't truly a friend, we've been in positions where we become self conscious because of them, where we start to hate ourselves or hate them. We grow disdain towards that person and we let our anger take over. I can tell you that we all have been there, even I have been there countless of times but I don't care because I don't let them get to me nor affect me. I am so much better than they are to have someone who never appreciated me as a friend hurt me in that way. You may trust that person a lot but is it really worth it being hurt when they chose to hurt you without hesitating? For you to be the only one in pain and they are still living to the fullest? No. It's not. Don't let anyone or anything affect the way you are. Be the bigger person and move one. It's always good to move on. Now the positive side of having friends it's because you won't feel alone, you will have friends that will be there for you for a long time. There's many friends that you grow to love and become very fond of. Sometimes we want to deal with problems alone but it's good to have someone by your side because we need support someone to tell us it will get better, and sometimes friends can help more than your own family. It's not bad to go to a friend and tell them about your problems, it won't make you look weak, ranting to a friend and having someone to listen to you and just let everything out is one of the greatest feelings. We all need a shoulder to cry on. So before I end this I'm asking you to always cherish your friendships, never take advantage of someone because you're not damaging yourself but someone else. Be someone's shoulder to cry on, someone's moral support, be reliable. It'll all come back to you. Always appreciate your friendships with someone because you never know what could happen tomorrow. Always give everyone a positive environment regardless of how bad they are. There's always redemption in some people.

That is it for today's chapter :)) I will upload another chapter tomorrow. I hope this helped you a little. This is my opinion and my point of view in this matter, you may not agree and that is fine. I hope you're all happy, safe, and healthy. Take care and have a great day/night .

With love,
