5 type of friends you should have…

Last night has been one of the greatest nights of my summer. I didn’t go a to party, like I usually do, but I was celebrating the success of one of my friends. Right there, on that amazing celebration,  I had realized, once again, there’s nothing better in life like surrounding yourself with the “right” people.

I’m social, happy type of person and love to have amazingly good and interesting conversations.  I have met a lot of people in different environments. People with different backgrounds and different upbringing than mine, but no matter how many people I had met I always choose who is worth keeping as a friend.

Last night, before I went to bed, I felt very lucky and very proud of having the best friends of the world. I went into a memory lane and I felt overwhelmed because I have chosen the best type of people. That’s why I encourage everyone to find the following 5 type of friends:

1. The friend who will support no matter what– I have this friend that compliments everybody. Every time he meets someone new he compliments them. I love this about him. He has a great charm and it’s secure of himself. He always makes me feel good and comfortable. He’s always positive and his energy is captivating. This type of person will have your back and give you support in bad or good times. This person it’s not jealous of your success or you ‘luck’ in life. This person will encourage you to achieve better things and always and always will be there to support you.

2. The joyful crew of friends – I have the most amazing and joyful type of friends. I always know that if I want to have a good time I can always call them. This type of people are celebrating life all the time. They’re a joy to be with. You can laugh with them for hours and make the silliest things ever and you will always have an amazing time. They share your outlook in life and they will always bring a smile to your face. You don’t need to see them often, but every time you are with them you know you may see the sunrise together. This type of people choose to have a happier life and their company can definitely lift you up.

3. The friend who you can talk for hours – For me it’s very important to have great and meaningful conversations with a friend. Doesn’t matter if it’s about what’s going on in the world or our current situation in life, but is the interest of knowing each other through words. Yesterday, someone ask me, “What is your philosophy of life?”, and after that question, this person caught my utterly and complete attention. This type of people are interesting and intelligent. Probably they are extremely successful or on their way of being. They will stimulate your intellect and inspire you to learn more about just anything.

4. The person who will always keep a secret, understands and really knows you – I call this, a Best Friend. I have a really good amount of best friends, but I know this girl who is amazing in every sense of the word. She knows me better than anyone in this world, as I know her. I can tell her everything about my life without the fear of being judged. My doubts, my accomplishments, my crazy stories, my sadness and my happiness. She’s always going to be a part of my life, my sister. I advice you to find a person who you can trust, bring support, motivates you, and loves you by who you are. This type of connection is difficult to find, but if you meet someone like this take care of them and love them. This type of relationship you have to nourish and cherish them for the rest of your life. You will not be disappointed, trust me.

5. The person who always positive – A while a go, I met this amazing girl. Her energy and her way of seeing life really blew me away. I wanted to be her friend in order to caught just a glimpse of her amazing positive outlook on life. She’s been trough a lot of stuff, but she’s always positive no matter what. She’s a great friend, daughter, mother and dancer. This type of people will always have kind words for you. They will always give you an amazing feedback and will always say things like, “I’m so proud of you”, “I’m so happy for you “, “Everything will workout for the best.” We need more people like this in our life. If you find someone like this, don’t let go.

I believe you choose what you want in you life. Having a great support of friends is highly important and recommended. Friends is the family you choose. Keep away from your life negative and dramatic people who would drag you to their hole of unhappiness.

Get to know people well and then choose if you want them or not in your life. Friendships are very important for your well-being, so pick the ones that are worth fighting for.

Have a wonderful rest of the week!
