Wanna have a best friend

本文发表在 rolia.net 枫下论坛I almost laughed to tears when my friend told me this story.

She was just back from a workshop. At the workshop there was a man who declared at the very beginning that he came from HongKong. He implied to everyone that he was not from China Mainland. During the workshop, he kept complaining. The living expense was so high. The commuting fee was expensive. And worst of all, he had no good friends here. The conductor agreed at first, “yes, it is hard to find an indeed friend, wherever you are in HongKong or in Toronto. But,” he suggested, “you may begin your friend hunting from today among all the people present here.” “These guys?” the HongKong man shrugged off. The conductor surprised, “ then how do you define a good friend?” he answered, “ I think he can at least help me find a job.” Then everyone there kept silent.

My friend’s comment is “what a naive man!” I don’t mean to criticize. There is no absolute right or wrong of one’s thinking. But I really think that man is funny. As far as I see, a friend is someone who can share your happiness or unhappiness instead of someone who can offer you a job. Life owes no one a living. Most of the time, we should try our own best to acquire our own happiness.

Following that man’s thinking I want to have a best friend too. A friend who can offer me a desirable job with good salary. Hehe更多精彩文章及讨论,请光临枫下论坛 rolia.net

    • 请继续写, 我们至少我在读, 静静地一点一滴地感受生活. GREAT!
    • No, NEVER make friend with your boss.
      I had a HongKong Chinese boss before I came to Canada. He even lent me some money to buy stock shares. But when I chose to leave, those money made us very unhappy.
      • agree! NEVER make friend with your boss! It will make you in an embarrassed situation!
      • your problem is to have some financial relationship with friends. When u put such relationship into your friendship, u can' find any real friend for sure. Don't do it again when u are in Canada now.
        • Yes, this is the point. Not because he is your boss, but because of the money. Different people have different criteria about money, and it is easy to have conflicts.
      • Never say never, ever forever... Amry of the lovers, my favorate. Don't ask me what's that, or I'll have to say the N word, never mind... :)
    • I want to have a best friend too.xixi. We can chatting, shopping, sharing our thoughts together.
      • 来多伦多我总想找一些人品好的同姓朋友,象姐妹一样,真诚相待。可有些人只有一张嘴,特别能讲,待人却非常的虚伪,自私。接触几个都是如此,想想也罢,在这里也没有时间交朋友。
        • 几个朋友不能代表全部,如果就此放弃又怎能找到好朋友呢?
        • "同姓朋友"? 交友的要求太严格了。而且姓这个姓的人自私虚伪的还比较多。告诉我,我也好提防着点
          • 我想是‘同性’朋友,笔误吧。EGG,中文能输入了?
            • 在家里,中文瘟酒吧。
              • BTW, 到底这样能使帖子变黄?好象控制不了。
        • 来MONTREAL,至少还有我
        • 是你沒有打開自己的心去交朋友吧﹖很間單的邏輯﹕如果每個人也有你這樣的想法﹐那麼大家都不用交好朋友咯。你能保證自己沒有虛偽對人﹖給別人機會﹐給自己機會嘛。
        • 我会是你的朋友
          我会你最好的朋友,我帮助过很多的人,
          • 笑死掉了, Winder. 帮助帮助我吧.
      • I have a good friend in toronto who is my classmate. We used to be chatting, shopping, sharing our thoughts.... together. I miss the time with her in college.
        When I go to toronto, we might have chances to review the past...
      • 你的朋友明年五月份就到,耐心等待。
    • you are exactly right!! however,it is not easy to find a real friend in Canada.
      • I don't think so. If you can make good friends in China, you should make good friends in Toronto, too.
      • 在抱怨没有朋友的同时,应该先想想自己……
    • 有朋友真好!我愿意交朋友!!!!
