How is this for a quiz....are you a real friend? Do you have the emotional intelligence to attract and keep real friends in your life?
Do you accept them as they are rather than judge them? Do you take responsibility for your feelings and avoid laying guilt trips on them for how you feel? Do you show compassion and understanding for their feelings? Do you recognize that everyone is responsible for their own feelings? Do you blame or attack them so that they do not have to be defensive around you? Do you avoid telling them what to do, caring enough for them to have a chance to grow and become strong and independent? Do you respect them enough to speak the truth in love? Do you treat them the way you want to be treated? Be the friend you want to have in your own life. |
