On Broken Friendship

The rupture of friendship always has the remedy, so long as it is a true friend ship. It is very easy. It is not true friendship, if it is irreparable. “One cannot get a friend, with whom both can truly and mutual understand each other.” Never try to repair the materialized friendship. When there is no common interests, it is can easily broken again. Our friends are water. When we feel thirsty, they go to us as a cup of water. Personally, I think there are some ways to remedy a true friendship, listed in the following:

We can arrange a face-to-face talk with each other to renew our friendship. When we talk with each other, we should try to reduce arguments, and try to find the common views between the both of us. We should have the patience to listen to the other’s explain about what happened, and why it became a thing to threat our friendship. Also, we should try to discuss if we are true friends with our broken friends. Gradually, we would come to the conclusion that it is a misunderstanding or something that we should not have done about it.

Another thing is that we can write a letter or a card to our friend, expressing our wish to repair the relationship. When we want to do in this way, the very important thing about it is wording. We should try to show our sincerity to our friends by making an apology, though it may be not our fault. Leave a telephone number, and try to ask him or her to have a face-to-face talk, if possible.

Also, it can be solved by a simply pointing out what is the reason that caused the broken friendship, and what are the wrong points of each other. Personally, I like this way, for I think, the friendship worth our efforts to renew is out of mutual understanding, and we should not ignore the principles that we hold to maintain the broken friendship. The friendship with principles can last much longer. Don’t you think so? There should not be any sense of confession or giving-in, when we repair the relationship between both sides.

I have talked so much about how to remedy a true friendship, just because that I treat true friendship a treasure in life. Also, I think it is unnecessary to remedy the friendship that is fake, which may form out of social or monetary purposes. This kind of friendship should not be worth our efforts to repair. So, it is easy to deal with this kind friendship – forget about it.

However, we should try all our efforts to remedy a true friendship, because it is so great and priceless, which is beyond the meaning in the sense of money. Money can buy friends but not true friendship.
