I came across one of Yinn Jaye's previous blog post a few days ago. I wanted to post comments but the word verification cold not load. So, I guess I will post my comments on my blog. This is in reference to his blog post on 27th Feb. The main question he asked was "Does pride matter more than friends?"

Well, this is what I think. Pride is the state or feeling of being proud. So does pride matter more than friends? No. However, there are times when pride is not necessarily a bad thing. All of us should take pride in our work, giving the best in all our work. We can feel proud if we have done well in any one subject or competition. Pride only becomes a bad thing when we have too much of it, when we 'show-off'. We can feel self pride, being contented with ourselves. However, when one starts pointing his nose up towards the sky, we have overstepped the boundaries. That is having too much pride & showing it out to others.

Friends are an important & big part of our lives. Freindships takes a long time to nurture but it takes the time of a snap of a finger for the relationship to break. Therefore, we should handle all our relationships properly. Friends may fight & argue at times. However, think back, reflect & see what went wrong. In the end, the both of you may just come running back laughing with each other.

Slip-ups may just be accidental at times with no evil intention.

Back-stabbers are not really friends at all. They are only friends on the surface.

Traitors betray you to go to the other side or sabotage you. They are almost no different from back-stabbers at all. The only difference is that they are friends with you only to the last moment when they finally decide to betray you.

We should find friends not in quantity but in quality. Find friends who are true to you. True friends are difficult to find. However there are true friends out there. You just have to reach out for them. You may be the friend they need as well. Do not find friends by what they appear on the outside, their surface. Reach in furthur. Uncover the gem in them.
