In general, there are many kinds of friends you will meet throughout the walks of life. There are friends from your primary school, high school, college/university, co-curricular activities, and friends from your work place. You will notice that friends are different from stage to stage.
Primary and high school friends are relatively more naïve, in other words, the friendship is purer and full of sincerity. University pals are a little different; some of the friends beside you were to gain advantage of you, perhaps for study notes or examination tips. Without advantage, they will not even consider to teach you things that they know, or they don’t even bother to befriend you. This is still acceptable, because you can see the real face/behavior of a person.
However, when you grew older and step into the “rat race” world, u will see even more types of people. Competition is everywhere and ‘mask’ is usually worn. But there’s always a good side of a situation, u will find people who is really good to you, who really willing to teach you things and convey all his/her knowledge to you. This kind of friends is generous and sincere, and indeed worthwhile for us to consider them as true friends. When there’s issue happening or facing roadblocks, you will get to see the real behavior of the friends around you, and that’s when you can find true friends. :D
I would like to take this opportunity to thank all my true friends around me, from all stages. U guys have been there for me all these while, no matter in sunny or rainy days. I truly appreciate it. Friends forever~~~
