Reflections: Friendship andLoyalty

How many of us recognizetrue loyalty in a friend Loyalty consists of a friend, who will stick by you,through thick and thin. A friend who is always honest with you and neverbetrays the friendship with lies is a loyal friend. If you have a loyal friend,you have indeed found a true virtue in that friend.

The current trend on theInternet is befriending anyone who requests to be your friend. However, thisnew trend may lead to disasters. It may be popular and trendy to have a networkfilled with a multitude of mutual friends. However, one true loyal friend maybe the only friend you need.

A term used on the popularFacebook site is B.F.F. This acronym means best friends forever. Are theyreally your best friends forever You might ask yourself this question,"Will they share my private matters with others on the pages of Facebook,or perish the thought, engage in gossip about me with others" If theanswer to that is, "I don't know", more than likely, they will not beyour best friends forever. Maybe not, even for a day.

I choose to have a B.L.F.,a best loyal friend, for those of you who may be challenged by the use ofacronyms during this age of technology and fast-talking.

Loyalty found in a friendis akin to making a deposit in a bank account. More often than not, yourdeposits gain interest, an interest in your well-being and welfare. A loyalfriend attracts another loyal friend. In essence, water does seek its ownlevel.

If you were a B.L.F. waybefore Facebook gained notoriety, then I'm sure you understand the premise ofloyalty in a friend. You should never exploit your B.L.F. to gain more friendsor make yourself seem more important to others. These are not the traits of abest loyal friend.

A best loyal friend doesnot care who is invited to your party. They will attend your party andcelebrate you, just in the way a best loyal friend should do.

Reconnecting with a bestloyal friend is easier to do on the pages of Facebook. However, a virtualfriend does not assure you of his loyalty. My caution to you is that you'dbetter pay attention to the smiling faces on the Facebook pages. In theeighties we were warned of smiling faces in a song, which contained theselyrics, " A smile is just a frown turned upside down, my friend."Now, that is the undisputed truth for my generation.

课文翻译

关于友情和忠诚的思考

我们之中有多少人能在朋友中识别出真正的忠诚忠诚包括无论何时都会支持你的朋友。一直对你坦诚、从不撒谎背叛你的朋友才是忠诚的朋友。如果你有一位忠诚的朋友，你一定在他身上发现了真正的美德。

如今网络上流行的趋势是你可以和任何一个想成为你朋友的人做朋友。然而，这种新的趋势有可能会引发灾难。在网络上拥有一大批共同好友可能是比较流行，但是一个真正忠诚的朋友可能是你需要的唯一的那一个。

广受欢迎的脸谱网站上有一个词叫做B．F．F。这个缩写词的意思是“永远的最好的朋“友”。他们真的是你永远的最好的朋友吗你可能会问自己：“他们会把我的私事发布在脸谱网页上与他人分享吗甚至与他人一起八卦我的隐私吗但愿永远不会。” 如果答案是“我不知道”，那么很有可能，他们不是你永远的好朋友，甚至连一天也没可能是。

在这个科技和快速交谈发展的时代对可能会面临使用缩写语的你们来说，我更想要一个B．L．F．忠诚的好朋友。

朋友间的忠诚就像是在银行账户里存款一样。通常你的存款会获得利息，关乎你幸福安康的利息。忠诚的朋友吸引另一个忠诚的朋友。本质上，水自然会向下流——朋友间总是惺惺相惜。

如果你早在脸谱网赢得恶名之前就是个B．L．F．的话，我相信你一定明白忠诚的朋友的前提。你不该利用自己的B．L．F．来结交更多的朋友或者让你自己看起来更加重要。这些不是忠诚的好朋友的特质。

忠诚的最好的朋友不会在意你宴会上都请了谁。他们会来参加你的宴会并向你表示祝贺，就像忠诚的最好的朋友应该做的那样。

在脸谱网上和忠诚的好朋友联络来得容易得多。然而，一个虚拟的朋友无法向你保证其忠诚。我给你的告诫是，你最好注意那些脸谱网站上的笑脸们。在80年代我们就在歌谣中被告知“笑脸是反着的苦恼的脸，我的朋友”。这在我们这一代也是不争的事实。
