    FRIENDSHIP

    FRIENDSHIP
     
    We have genuine friendship
    when it is based on true human
    feeling, a feeling of closeness
    in which there is a sense of
    sharing and connectedness.
    I would call this type of friendship
    genuine because it is not affected
    by the increase or decrease of the
    individuals wealth, status,
    or power.  The factor that sustains
    that friendship is whether of
    not the two people will have
    mutual feelings of love and
    affection.  Genuine human
    friendship is on the basis of
    human affection, irrespective of
    your position.  Therefore,
    the more you show concern
    about the welfare and rights of
    others, the more you are a
    genuine friend.  The more you
    remain open and sincere,
    then ultimately more benefits
    will come to you.  If you forget or
    do not bother about others,
    then eventually you will lose
    your own benefit.
