Today, modern technology allows us to make hundreds, or even thousands, of social network “friends” by merely adding their names to our list of contacts. We also do that here on Steem. We follow somebody, and they may also follow us. However, can we really be considered "friends"? The truth of the matter is, true friendship still eludes many. In fact, a recent survey revealed that although we are socializing more, the number of our truly close friends has decreased.
So, how can we be a good friend? What does it take to forge a lasting friendship?
Show that you CARE
True friends really care for each other. This kind of commitment is two-way, it requires a lot of sacrifice and hard work on both sides.
“Just as you want men to do to you, do the same way to them. Practice giving, and people will give to you.”
--Luke 6:31, 38.
COMMUNICATE
A true friendship cannot flourish without regular communication. Communication is the lifeblood of a strong relationship. So, it is necessary to talk and listen; post, read and comment. We need this in order to thrive.
“Everyone must be quick to listen, slow to speak, slow to anger.”
--James 1:19.
Widen Your CIRCLE of Friends
Taking an interest in people of all ages, cultural backgrounds, and nationalities can truly enrich our lives.
In the CCC Community, the member are doing just as this. We CARE and support each other, we COMMUNICATE and interact with one another to strengthen our friendship, and we also widen out our CIRCLE of friends.
