Friends

     Having friends in our lives is very important. Friendships can help us to face hardship and suffering, and bring us joy and laughter. Friendships can also enrich our lives with memorable experiences and happy encounters. Although some of us may consider ourselves from society forever. After all, no man is an island. Thus, here are some steps we can take to make friends.
     
      Firstly, we should take the initiative to get to know others, instead of always relying and waiting for them to make the first move with us. It is said that a friend is a gift you give yourself. So, why not make the first move? There are many ways to break the ice with people we meet for the first time. The simple gesture of smiling at someone could help us to embark on a meaningful journey of friendship.













 

     Besides that, another way to widen our circle of friends is to treat others with respect. We should be humble and void being judgemental. We should always treat our friends as how we would want them to treat us. We should also keep in mind that what goes around comes around. Hence, if we treat our friends with disrespect, we will find ourselves being treated the same way. By being respectful to others, we will soon find ourselves surrounded by people who are keen to be our friends.

     Lastly, we could learn to be more helpful. When someone is in need of a helping hand, we should never shy away from offering our help. This will evoke a sense of gratitude in others and they would want to be our friends. This encourages us to forge and cherish longlasting frienships.

     In conclusion, it is not difficult to make friends. Maintain a cheerful demeanour and always be yourself. If you follow these simple rules, you will soon find your social calendar overflowing with events.
