I often did not waste time inquiring about other people’s affairs or asking what they were doing. I do not even know how to carry a friend relationship. I do not feel like asking my friends about their condition. I am also a shy person to talk with people unless if it’s required.
I called someone when I had a problem or need in my life. There was a reason to miss him when talking to this friend of mine was not the same as talking to other people. We used to talk to each other and laugh a lot. We sang songs together in church and played musical instruments and studied in church sunday school. We were together for about ten years and participated in worship, choir practice and other activities. If one of us was not in church the others would look up. One thing I have to say about him is that he is a very talented person. Sometimes I’m jealous of how he did things. But when I talk about him or I’m a lot happier talking to him. If I do not see him on a Sundays, I will miss him very much. But I never told him you were my best friend. He never spoke to me either. I’m still proud of him because he still works for God. I feel like he saw me as a close friend in those days, and now I feel like I ignored him at that point.
He came to my house before I went to study. No one came to see me at that time or no one seemed to want to come but now when I think about it I realize that it was the duty of a good friend. Conversations with him later greatly diminished. From time to time I thought a lot about calling him. But in my mind he seemed to be busy. Sometimes I may have deliberately ignored it. Now when I think about it, I realize that I have not done my duty as a good friend. Because I did not stand by him when he needed a friend.
But he is always with me when I need him. In his last phone conversation he lovingly said one thing to me. “Call him occasionally if I can.” In fact, from that moment on I realized that my actions were wrong. His actions showed me how to be a good friend.. β€ππ
