There are m any proverbs about friends and friendship, such as “True frien d ­
ship is like sound health; the value o f its seldom known until it is lost” ,and “A
real frien d is som eon e who walks inwhen the rest o f the w orld walks out". W hen
you read these quotes, stop and think about your
friendship. Do you and
your
friends act in a caring way towards one another, do you respect them and do they
respect you, but m ost o f all do you value the relationship and love spending tim e
together? F riendship is m ore than just hanging out together at lunch and gossip­
ing about other people. True friendship is when two people have mutual respect
for one another, and really care about the each other’s feelings and dreams. You
need to be able to be honest w ith your friends. I f there is ever a tim e where you
feel that you cannot tell them the truth, for fear that they w ill be m ad or will not
understand, then they are not true friends. Friends share w ith each other im por­
tant things that they would not share with others. Friends also care about each
other, stick up for one another and enjoy spending tim e together.

Som etim es our m ost em barrassing experiences in life have the potential to

I was con tem platin g jo in in g a local professional association and decided it
would be a good idea to attend their free introductory meeting. So I planned to go
after work, m eet the officers and introduce m yself to a few members.
On the evening the m eeting was scheduled, I happened to have had a very long
day at work. I had not had a chance to eat lunch and could feel my blood sugar
dropping. Since this m akes me light-headed and a bit grumpy, I decided I had
better stop at hom e and get a quick snack to hold me over, before I went to this
meeting. After all, you never get a second chance to make a first impression, right?
That night, traffic was backed up, and it took me lon ger than usual to get
home. I decided th at all I had tim e to do was to run into the house, get tw :
apples, a few crackers and a bottle o f w ater and then hurry on to this m eetir.r
I put them all into in m y large purse, and ran back outside to get in the car
Fortunately, the traffic had cleared up. I sped up downtown and made it to the
m eetin g on tim e, w ithout eatin g anything. “G reat” I thought, “E veryth in g is

going perfectly”. I w ent inside and all the newcom ers were invited to sit at a round
table and introduce them selves before the m eeting started. It was very crowded,
and I did not really have room to put my purse on the floor or on m y chair, so I put
it on the table in front o f m e and settled down to listen to the speaker.
A fter the m eeting, I did what I had intended to do. I introduced m y self to the
officers o f this club and met a few other m em bers. W hen I was speaking I noticed
that everybody was lookin g at m e strangely and sm iled. The w orst thing hap­
pened w hen I stood up. all things in my purse dropped out! Apples, crackers, a

bottle o f water, and even som e make-up.
