How
to have happy friends?
This is a very
important question. Who likes friends who
don't smile and laugh? Who enjoys meeting
friends who look serious? Not any one of
us.
What about ourselves?
Do we make happy friendships? Do we make
our friends happy? Before thinking about
others, wouldn't it be better if we first
analyze our own selves? Do we smile more
often when we are with our friends? Do we
laugh at the smallest joke? Or do we have
a serious expression on our face all the
time with our friends? Let us first think
about our own behavior and correct whatever
we can.
Making happy friendships
Make yourself look happy
with your friends and your friends will
reflect. That is the secret of happy friendship.
Our emotions are reflected in our body language.
The reverse is equally true. Does this help
us? It does. It can change our state of
mind by changing our physical state. For
example, if you are feeling bored, try to
look cheerful and you will start becoming
cheerful. It is strange, but it works. If
you are feeling sad, try to look happy.
You will find the sadness going away. Isn't
it great?
How do we talk with friends?
Happiness also depends
on what do we talk with our friends. Are
we always talking of our own life or do
we also listen to them. Listening is the
best way to make friends happy. Listen and
do it carefully. No pretensions. Your friends
will be happy that someone heard them out
without interruption. You will also be making
your friendship stronger. Listening is very
good.
By listening, we make
the other person feel important. we also
make him/her feel happy and relieved. By
talking things out, one feels relieved.
Isn't it?
Give and you shall receive-
the third law of Newton. Apply this law
in your life and make happy friends. You
can make them happy right now by telling
them about how much you appreciate their
friendship. Listening to your friends, keeping
a happy state of mind in their company and
appreciating the friendship will make happy
friends. Make your life happier and your
relationships
stronger with happy friends.
