IT TAKESONETO KNOWONE Keeping a friend means being a friend. Wanna know six steps to becoming a friend others can count on? ~Sometimes misunderstandings take place... so understand all your friend~ Friends are supposed to watch your back so, when they dump on you, it can really hurt. But they are there for you, it can be the collest feeling in the world. 1)Treat friends like you want to be treated Putting yourself in your friend's kicks is the first and biggest step towards a stellar friendship. Once you have this one down, everthing else gets that much easier! Just think about what you want in a friend, and then be that preson to others. A friend is someone who helps you, encourages you, humors you and likes to hang out with you. A friend is someone who stays with you till the end, womeone who is not a backstabber. A good friend is loyal, helpful, caring, and can keep a secret. When you have a friend who is dealing with a tough situation, imagine what you would feel like if you were in her place. Think about what you would want a friend to do for you in such a sitch, and then do exactly that for your friend. When you treat others the way you want to be treated, you become the best friend anyone could imagine. "Treat others as you want them to treat you. This is what the Law and the Prophets are all about." 2) Get over the groups The quickest way to put the brakes on a friendship before it even revs up is to think you are better than someone else. Maybe you are advoiding someone because he is not in the same group, or clique, even though you know you could probably help him with something he is going through or just be his pal. You never know, his friendship might turn out to be priceless. 3) Be slow to poit fingers When someone does something wrong, the first thing people often want to do is point it out to them or someone else. Feel like fingerpointing? HOLD UP! First, decide why you want to point out someone's flaws. Is it because you care about the person, or is it because you care about the person, or is it because you feel superior when others slip up? Even if a friend has thrown you under the bus, trying to retaliate by painting that person in a bad light is just wrong. You want to be a great friend, right? Well, a great friend wouldn't do that. When someone hurts you or does something wrong, let your anger simmer down before you do or say things you would not normally do or say. Remember that the way you treat others is often how you will treated in return! If you need to confront the person about what he did, talk to him about it - alone, not in front of the crowd. There are times, though, when happened, especially if someone physically hurt you or threatened you. Try talking to your parents or, yes, even a teacher. 4) Be secretive A cool wat to be a super friend is to do something nice for someone on the sly. It's always fun to get a secret surprise from a friend and to try to figure out who the culprit is. And if you do things without expecting to have roses thrown at you for it, one day, you'ss get a better thanks than you ever imagined! 5) Take a risk - care enough to tell If a friend you care about is making careless decisions, it's important to have the courage to talk to him about it. Even though it might seem bossy to tell a friend he needs to change, it's often the right thing to do. In the end, he might even thank you! Good friends always tackle tough situations head-on because they care about doing what's right more than care they care about being rejected. And helping a friend will almost always make you fell great! 6) Be thrustworthy It might sound hokey, but honesty is the best policy. And it's a major must if you want to be a friend others and that you will never betray them. A good friend will always try to do those things, and there is one friend you can have who will always suceed! That person is Jesus, God's Son, and Heis the best friend you could ask for because not only does He want what is best for you, He also has the power to make it happen. Jesus loves you unconditionally, and He will always be there for you. He wants to be your friend, and that's why He came to Earth 2000 years ago. He came to show His love and to invite people to have a friendship with Him.
