There is a saying passed down in indian, "Friend is a person who shares sorrow for his or her friend." Many people agree with this saying, friends are treasures in their lives. But making friends is really hard work to everyone, because, they have difficulty to understanding each other's problem and if they cannot have enough time to bold their relationship, friends are usually easy to almost forget them. Thus, I believe similar friends are better to become the best friends.
First, it is easier in similar friends to understand their friends' trouble. We face a problem anytime and need friends' helps. Similar friends are likely to have had the same problem, since their attitudes are alike in the same situation. If someone has a friends who overcame the problem in the past, the friends will be able to help someone more effectively. Similar friends' experience gives really useful advice their friends. In Chosun dynasty which is the nation before the republic of Korea, there are real friends "O-sung" and "Han-eum" Many korean people think they have effect on their lives affirmatively, because, they support each other with their firm understanding. Their personality was similar, they did not need to worry about their problem. The same experience usually helps "O-sung" or "Han-eum" to deal with their work with no mistake.
Moreover, sharing same hobby is a good advantage of making similar friends. In particular, playing same sports is really helpful to make their relationship stronger. I had a friend who really loved playing badminton which was my favorite hobby. We become close rapidly through playing badminton, knowing about each other's interest and another hobby. At that time, I felt it is important making friends who can share hobby or their interest, because, time is critical when it comes to their relationship. Although childhood friends are close if they cannot get together for long time, most of friends are easy to be forgotten if someone have not met his or her friends for more than a year. Since sharing time has great effect, having same hobby with similar friends is really needed.
There are many people in the world. But friends are not just people, can be discribed as a amazing oxygen in someone's whole life. With their friends, many people can breathe even in lots of troubles. Similar friends are more important than another friends, because, they have fully understanding with each other and share priceless time doing something that they both want to. For these reasons, similar friends are much better than different friends. |
