“The Value of Friendship” by Aellen Daileg

Most of us have friends and anyone can have one. But what is friendship? Friendship is the relationship between friends and that creates closeness and bonds. We all have different definitions of a friend, but for me a friend can be defined as a companion that is always there. Giving his shoulder to comfort you, helping to resolve your problem and making you smile when they notice that you are sad, a friend that ready to hear out your ups and downs stories regard to his life.

When i first met them, we are rivals and strangers with each other. After a lot time we just felt that friendship is urging within us without any word, there are times that gestures were just enough to create a friendship that could withstand any challenges that could come in our way.

The value of a friend is priceless; no one can ever buy the effort that they exert to make their friends the happiest persons in the world. It is hard to find a real friend; sometimes it needs a due process and time to have one.

Sometimes, friendships arise from some conflicts that we encounter such as arguments and misunderstanding but if we could just overcome all of those a greater bond between friends could be obtained and, thus, a stronger and better friendship would eventually arise. Whatever the outcome it may impose, acceptance of each other’s view is a must to build a harmonious relationship between friends, for without acceptance; friendship would not exist at all.

Friendship is a give and take relationship for sometimes we need to be a friend to be able to gain one. We need to watch each other’s back to gain trust and establish such relationship. Friendships are forever and thus we should value our friends like a diamond that could withstand anything that would come to its way. The value of friendship cannot be described by a single word instead we should find it within ourselves and be able to grow it by sharing with others. We should let friendship grow even if we are apart, thus communication is always important to feel a presence of care, a care of a valuable friendship.

I would like you to reflect on this quotation: ‘the greatest value of having good friends is not what you get from them, but the better person you become because of them.'

Priscilla Pringle's Predicament - Reader's Theater at Lethbridge Whoop-U...

This week was quite fun for me because I got to portray the main antagonist in a Reader's Theater called 'Priscilla Pringle's Predicament/All's Swell That Ends Swell' that Playgoers of Lethbridge put on at Lethbridge Whoop-Up Days 2017. The story was written by Ed Bayly, a truly wonderful individual. Doing the performances all week reminded me of how much I love participating in theater. Please enjoy this recording! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qIh88Y5H3cI&t=1135s

"Around and around" by Isidro Zapata on the #mormonysablogs Official Website

Around & around we go trying to fill a void in our hearts, so around & around we go, trying to fill a void in our hearts, The Son of Man's compassion, passion and grace step in, to fill the void holding us tenderly, by his love and grace Jesus will never let us go So around and around our love grows hard to walk away from such love Jesus is the only way to live a life of bliss So around and around our love grows Jesus gave his life for you and me Wiping away every tear showing you grace from above now that is true love So around and around our love grows to the one who laid down his life so we can live a life of bliss hard to walk away from such love so around and around our love grows to him who laid down his life for you and me CR2016-01-04 iz

'Telling the Truth' by Lesego Mholo

I'd rather be hurt by you telling me the truth than lies. Keep deceiving people and think they don't know. One day it will catch up with you. The truth hurts when its contrary to what your made to believe.  In one way or another lies always catch up with us, our consciousness doesn't let us lie for too long. Lying affects trust and loyalty in a relationship when your lied to you feel like you no longer belong you feel inadequate, telling the truth solidifies a relationship bond, and it might signify love or care; furthermore, telling the truth to me it tells that your emotionally mature. The truth makes me feel secure. Sometimes we give our hearts to people, and they think we are stupid for that we end up depending on them for loyalty. Truth is the only way two people can survive in a relationship and mutual understanding but reassurance and trust are the only things that might keep the relationship functioning. Dishonesty is the beginning of a fading relationship and
