False Friendship 1: A Selfish Person

We may wonder what behaviors are meant when one is selfish.

False Friendship 2: The Man of Empty Promises

We may wonder what behaviors are performed by the man of empty promises.

False Friendship 3: The Flatterer

Many times we might behave like that without knowing how evil we are. These poor behaviors certainly can cause us worry because nobody thinks that we are sincere in the long run.

False Friendship 4: The One Who Leads You Down the Road to Ruin

Basically, the one who leads you down the road to ruin likes persuading you to do bad, unnecessary, or useless things.

The Best Catalyst of Creation is Good Friends

Good friends usually lead us in the right directions. They prefer only thoughts, words, and actions that benefit their lives and others. Whatever is right and appropriate they know how to do.

Looking for a Helpful Friend

I am sure that we may practice any of these actions with our friends when the time comes. Whoever behaves in these ways is admirable.

Looking for a Constant Friend

How lucky we are, if we can have a friend like this, or we can behave in these ways toward our friends. We are impressed by these characteristics.

Looking for a Friend of Wise Counsel

I believe that we still can find a lot of friends like this in our society. That means the world is not too bad. However. “not too dad” does not mean it is all good.

Looking for a Sympathetic Friend

A sympathetic friend possesses admirable characteristics far different from the one who leads you down the road to ruin
