A blog or two ago, I talked about how music can massively effect how our moods change and develop. Well, this one shall be how we can always looks to those closest to us for help and advice in situations we would otherwise find ourselves to be helpless or lost.
I'm glad I can say I have a handful of people who I consider to be my close friends, two in particular who stand out, which would help me in difficult situations. Sometimes we never understand fully how much we need and cherish our friends until they prove themselves to be supportive and kind.
In friends we find ourselves and how we can better our character and strength our qualities through advice, criticism and praise. A fact was raised to myself the other day, it was stated that a person will have three to five 'best friends' at any one time. Looking at this, to some degree this is true, however the level of I guess 'best-friend-ness' can be quite large in some aspects, or at least, this is what I find to be true myself.
Moving to another point I realised as of late, I believe myself to be a kind person, though I have some trust issues, for the most part I give people the benefit of the doubt and give everyone a chance to prove themselves without casting doubt. However, in recent times I found myself being tested and pushed with my ability to do this, so in light of this I decided for the benefit of myself to change how I approach this situation. As before, I will give a person the benefit and for the most part trust them, however the level of kindness and selflessness put forward will only be matched by that which is given.
As the saying goes, trust is earned, perhaps more qualities should be measured on this same sentiment. This is something that will be tested, as by nature I am generally inclined to be trusting without knowing if I should or not.
