美好的友谊

Nov 6, 2023

得知己,胜手足。(箴言18:24)

建立美好的友谊需要时间和精力;而且只有当友谊受到考验时,你才会发现它们有多重要。有一位作者写道:“让你的心与另一个人共鸣,需要大幅度的调整,以克服自我中心。这就像是乘坐大巴,旅途中你需要伙伴,就要乐意挪开,让出空间接纳他人及其行李。你这么做表示看重他人。一种关系之所以比其他关系更有价值,是因为它能够存活并且经得起重大的变化。”我们在一个朋友身上最看重的品质是双重的:一、我们相信他们不会在道路崎岖难行时离开;二、我们知道自己的缺陷和伤疤不会改变他们承诺的程度。所罗门说:“滥交友,自招损;得知己,胜手足。”友谊不在于数量,而在于质量。这就是心灵的纽带可能强于血缘关系的原因所在。不要因为某人犯了错,使你失望,或者贸然行事,你就过早贬低他的好品格。就像你不会因为电池问题或轮胎漏气就把车丢到垃圾场。爱意味着冒险,但回报会大于投资。在每个成功故事的背后,你都会发现那些曾经泄气,想要放弃的人,当跌倒需要扶持时,有人适时出现,把他们拉起来,帮助他们前行。生活不是建立在收获和成就上,而是建立在关系上。因此,保持你的关系处于良好的状态。
