Someone told me that there are two kinds of friends.
If you stumble across your way and fall, one kind of friend will go rushing towards you, be empathetic and he/she will tell you that everything will be alright. He or she will help you to get up no matter what.
Another kind of friend will just look at you as you get up all by yourself, laugh at your mistake and tell you that “you are a complete moron”.
The first friend is the kind who will be there, at your side, ‘til the end of time. He/she will watch closely every move you take…ready to give you a hand anytime. (Kumbaga, spoiled ka. :) ) If you meet a stumbling block on your way, he/she will always be there to catch your fall.
The other friend is the kind who will be there with you…though you don’t always notice him/her. He/she will watch you from a distance, let you commit your own mistakes, laugh at you for your errors and tell you na “tanga mo kasi :) ”.
I think all of us have these two kinds of friends. Mind you, the first kind is not better than the other…nor the other way around.
It may seem that “ang sama naman ng second kind of friend”. But for me sometimes people have different ways of “being a friend”. The other friend did not laugh just to make fun of you. He/she has no real intentions of making you feel like a complete fool. I think it is his/her way of “being there for you”. Maybe it is his/her own way of making the situation less hard for you. Maybe it is his/her own way of saying, “ok lang yan” or “kaya mo yan”.
So whatever kind of friend we may have right now, let's just be grateful that we have them. :)Salamat.
