Wherever we go in the world we see souls tormented by the feeling of loneliness, the sense of abandonment and the eagerness to be able to form bonds of friendship, although they do not know how to do it.

In such cases, more care is required, since anxiety often precipitates negative things in life.

It is common that in the enthusiasm to make friends the person becomes involved with people of bad morals, addicted or suffering from serious complications.

This is so in the pursuit of friends as well as a spouse and it is not worth it under any circumstances.

The adage that says: Better alone than in bad company is very true.

While some prefer bad company to loneliness, they end up engaging in torments of such caliber that it does not take long for the regret about the bad investment to appear.

So when despite your good will, it is difficult to make good friends, wait a little longer without getting discouraged.

Stay alert and calm because time does not disappoint those who wait while working.

Be your own best friend.

Do not get corrupted. Do not create problems for later regrets. Read good books. Cultivate good music, arts and sports.

Live in broader contact with nature. Eat and drink what suits you without remorse.

You'll see that with this pattern of behavior taken seriously it will be very hard not to find other people on your way that cultivate the same good ideas and are willing to strengthen ties and become your friend.

It will all have to begin with you.

*   *   *

Wherever you are, find in the daily coexistence the transparent hearts or simple souls in order to approach them.

Try to spread the good inside you to other beings, remembering that, as Jesus said, it is from the good treasure of our hearts that we can extract the good things we say and do.

Who wants to have good friends needs to be a good friend above all.

Of course friendship is a two way street where we give and receive. However, the posture of a good man always has to be that of someone who gives first.

Retribution will be a natural consequence for the good heart without the necessity of pursuing it as a goal.

Think about your friendships asking yourself: Am I being a good friend? Am I thinking of others before thinking of myself, my needs and afflictions?

It's always time to change and improve without fear or embarrassment.

Surprise your friends today with an unexpected gesture, with a never asked question, with a stronger than usual hug.

Friendship is a treasure that we carry in our hearts.
