During my interview on my new work, I was asked by the interviewee.. “Who’s the closest person in your life right now?”
I immediately answered without hesitation to the one who’s asking, “It’s God, ma’am.”, with a deep breath and a smile.
She stared at me for a moment, smiled back and said, “Yes, I know..but what I mean is a real person.. a human.. who knows almost everything about you and your whereabouts. Do you have one?”
As I was digesting her question, I pause and think of that human.. and slowly I answered with a delight as I’d made up my thought.. “My best friend, yes my best friend ma’am.”
On that day on, I got a clarification from myself that having a best friend is not an agreement. It’s like I don’t have to make an arrangement to the person, who knows almost everything about me.
It is you who will define him/her in your life, not his/her confirmation or response.
Do you have a best friend?
How do you know that you got such a friend? :))
In a friendship, it is not enough to be accepted but the most important is to be filled with the real Love that only Christ can give. A love that is selfless. 🙂
Anyways, my best friend is not just updated with my good times as well as bad times, it is part of the package. A helper during my difficulties. A buddy who is willing to be with me even if I’m talking non sense stuffs. The one who disciplines me and would never hesitate to correct during my erroneous moments. A person being used by God to come with me in my on going quest.
I am blessed for being part of this person’s journey. I grow and formed every time this buddy intervenes my life. ❤
Take note:
A best friend may not know that he/she is a best friend. It does not matter. You are not soliciting for attention either. 🙂 bless u!
