What’s your opinion about finding good friends? Speaking from my past experience, it is very difficult to find good friends that you can trust but once you have found them, they are worth keeping forever! Therefore, I think friendship is the most important relationship that anybody could have.

The qualities I look for in a friend are a good sense of humor and sensitivity. A friend would have to be strong-minded and highly spirited. I think that these qualities are the key qualities to look for in a good friend.

Even the best friends can still have arguments between themselves, though usually about more serious topics, rather than the usual childish arguments. Some matters can seriously affect friendship. If one of your friends started experimenting with harmful and dangerous drugs, what would you do? A good friend would try to help as much as possible, while a bad example of a friend would simply shrug and turn a blind eye.

Not only the bad things affect friendship ---good activities do too, such as bonding with one another, not just by going out on a night with them, but by spending quality time with them and talking to each other. This is a key aspect of a good friendship.

Good friends do not always have to be in the same age group as you. I have a good friend and she is 47 years old and I am 16.

Unfortunately, some people lose contact with their friends as they grow older, which is a sad way to lose a good friend.

I think friendship is one of the most important things in life because if you have no friends you will have no happiness.

How to stick to your own opinion in socializing ?

When it comes to your life , the opinion of others should matter very little . I am not talking about your friends and family , but others who have no importance in your reality – like your social peers and others like them . They are unimportant to your life , and yet you secretly struggle for approval at the cost of your own . Remember , your opinion is king .

Start by being your true self . Allowing your true self to appear and connect with people on a more real level helps them in turn do the same with you . There is openness and honesty in the interaction . At the end of the day this is what we all want – the joy of true and meaningful connections .

Next , evaluate your decisions . Are they representing who you are or are they the result of other people’s opinion ? Practice your ability not to be affected by pressure and learn to take nothing personally . When we are bothered by outer criticisms , it influences and changes our behavior . Don’t look to others for guidance on how to behave . Don’t look for approval . If you don’t need approval , you won’t have a reason to try to impress people or be impressed by them .

And finally , be real in EVERY situation . As you express your real self , others will think highly of you and the few who don’t – don’t matter anyway . Be willing to be judged , and then not take it to heart . If all this is a bit scary , then start small . Rather than not caring at all what others think , start by just caring a little less . No one outside your inner circle should get a vote or pass judgment or have influence on how you live your life .

There is distinction between reading for information and reading for understanding.1. .

The first sense is the one in which we read newspapers, magazines, or anything else.2. Such materials may increase our store of information, but they cannot improve our understanding.And clearly we don’t have any difficulty in gaining the new information, for our understanding was equal to them before we started.Otherwise, we would have felt the shock of puzzlement.

The second sense is the one in which we read something that at first we do not completely understand.Here the thing to be read is at the first sight better or higher than the reader.The writer is communicating something that can increase the reader’s understanding.3. Otherwise one person could never learn from another.Here “learning” means understanding more, not remembering more information.

Besides, his book must convey something he possesses and his potential readers lack.Second, the reader must be able to overcome this inequality in some degree.And he should always try to reach the same level of understanding with the writer.If the equality is approached, success of communication is achieved.

5. It is the least demanding and requires the least amount of effort.Everyone who knows how to read can read for entertainment if he wants to.In fact, any book that can be read for understanding or information can probably be read for entertainment as well.
