Reflections: Friendship and Loyalty How many of us recognize true loyalty in a friend? Loyalty consists of a friend, who will stick by you, through thick and thin. A friend who is always honest with you and never betrays the friendship with lies is a loyal friend. When all other friends desert, he remains. The current trend on the Internet is befriending anyone who requests to be your friend. However, this new trend may lead to disasters. It may be popular and trendy to have a network filled with a multitude of mutual friends.However, one true loyal friend may be the onlyfriend you need. A term used on the popular Facebook site is B.F.F. This acronym means best friends forever. Are they really your best friends forever? You might ask yourself this question, Will they share my private matters with others on the pages of Facebook, or perish the thought, engage in gossip about me with others? If the answer to that is, “I don’t know”, more than likely, they will not be your best friends forever.These are not the traits of a best loyal friend. I choose to have a B. L.F., a best loyal friend, for those of you who may be challenged by the use of acronyms during this age of technology and fast-talking. Loyalty found in a friend is akin to making a deposit in a bank account. More often than not,your deposits gain interest an interest in your well-being and welfare.A loyal friend attracts another loyal friend. In essence, water does seek its own level If you were a B. L.F. way before Facebook gained notoriety, then Im sure you understand the premise of loyalty in a friend. You should never exploit your B. LF. to gain more friends or make yourself seem more important to others.If you have a loyal friend, you have indeedfound a true virtue in that friend. 文章翻译
