"Friends"

            Going in a downward path is an obvious easy way out. But only if you have people around you that do not truly care for you. Arnold H. Glasow once stated that, “A true friend never gets in your way unless you happen to be going down.” Keeping real friends around you will result in a better life since they will not ever let you go in a wrong direction.

            True friends will not get in your way of happiness because of jealousy or any other reasons. If someone is your real friend they would want to see you happy and see you doing better. But if they are your true friend and they get in your way then they feel that you are not going in the right direction. On the other hand they may not be a true friend and they may just let you go on that downward path. This is why evaluating who you choose to call your “friend” is a very important task because it should be known that not everyone is your friend.

            It is also true that not everyone can identify a true friend. When trying to find out if he/she is a real friend it is always good to think of this quote while considering their actions. Like if they did or did not get in your way.
