As we all know women have been pegged as petty, jealous, trifling, competetive and some not so nice labels. I find that the best way to be a friend is not to gossip about others, not to be jealous of their success, but to relish their accomplishments, which in turn enriches me as a person.
I don't bore my friends with my problems,because I understand they have theirs too. Most times we exchange ideas. I also follow "neither a lender nor a borrower be."
Sometimes, we find ourselves needing help and a true friend will step up and offer, and if I accept the help, then I try to reciprocate two fold.
One of the Christian rules we have to follow to avoid the enemy's influence, is to stay away from trouble. The Devil is the father and author of lies, and contention, Brewing discord amongst us, one of my greatest virtues is to not respond when insulted, challenged, or provoked.
My response is to say a prayer, so having said, that "Father forgive us all our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us, and lead us not into temptation.
I hope many see the wisdom in God's word as His word is manifested in our daily lives. God Bless all my sisters and brothers.
