TRUST WISELY : HOW POWERFULL ARE YOUR ENEMIES AND FRIENDS

PEACE BE UNTO YOU

Good day my lovely friends and hivians of this great community, i trust we are all doing great. So today , we will be talking about friends and our enemies, how powerful are this set of people, how much is the value of power they hold in determining how our lives is shaped , Well, life have actually taught me a great lesson and this has actually changed the way i see things and i believe it will be of a great interest if i actually share this story with you.

Right from the early stage of man , He had this tendency of wanting to belong somewhere, Men are social creatures and are always in the race of socializing with the people they find. This was described as what actually led man to start living in groups.

Who are your friends ?

I got the result below from a google search :

A friend is someone with whom one has a bond of mutual affection , typically one exclusively of sexual or family relations .

I believe the above text is self explanatory,
but i also believe that people have their own understanding of friendship.
In my my own understanding , the above explanation is acceptable.

How important are friends to you ? ;

Well during my Days in the university, i came across an article . The content of this article is that "we are the average of the people we surround ourself with" . My father once said and i quote , " if i can be able to meet at least 3 of your friends , i can be able to tell the type of person you are " , i so much believed in this his saying as mOst of the people i called my friends are a mirror of myself.

Also , according to the law of attraction , i was meant to understand that the easiest and fastest way to actually become or attract what you want to be is to surround yourself with people who are already that which you are seeking to become.

So you see , so much depends on friends. Even God himself knew the importance of friendship that was actually why he gave us the right and free will to choose the people we call our friends.

so that begs the question , should we trust our friends ?. If yes , how often should we do so . Or should we not trust them at all.

Well , subconsciously man is wired in such a way that they easily trust the people they call their friends and loved ones. I mean , who would trust his enemies , that's weird . When ever we are in trouble , the first set of people that we depend and fallback on is our friends and loved ones.

But professionally speaking , i can tell you that we are more vulnerable to exploitation when we are around our friends. I am not saying that we should not trust friends , but don't trust them too much to the extent of being so vulnerable.

Before i delve into my own story , i will actually give you guys some example of some famous great men from history who were betrayed by their closed ally.

• Juliusu Ceaser

The famous Roman dictator , Julius Ceaser was betrayed and murdered by a closed and trusted ally named Burutus.

• Napoleone Bonarparte :
  Napoleon was a general in the French Military , who was famed for his courage and confidence during the French revolution that took place across europe. He was betrayed by by one of his trusted advisor , A man named Charles Maurice de Talleyrand.

• Jesus Christ :

To the christians among us , this is a very familiar story as he was betrayed by his own disciples.

So you see , the list goes endless, Al Capone ,Alexander The Great , Benedict Arnold. All these great men where betrayed by their closed friends.

Well , since we have seen how vulnerable we are when we are with friends and how we are easily betrayed by then , what then should we do , should we then trust our enemies ? . That will be a story for another Day.

I actually did my cleanplanet cleaning today, after completing my afternoon ToDo list , i went outside picked up the dirt and disposed them properply.

Thanks for stoping by.
