How to be a true friend
如何做个真正的朋友
Life can be a lonely thing without companionship. Acquaintances are easy to come by but true friends are a whole other story. The best way to develop meaningful connections with true friends we can trust is to become a true friend yourself.

Be present for their highs and lows.
荣辱与共。

You might not feel comfortable while spending time with an emotionally fragile person on the verge of tears, but true friends are readily available when they're needed the most.
