think abt it in another way.....u can only be a true friend when u are a "tool" to ur friend.....be it a listening ear, a supporting shoulder, etc..
its hard to achieve unconditional love in life...but at least we should try to work towards it...lets not be troubled by whether our friends are making use of us......think abt how we can be the "tool" in our friends' life.....
In a sense, you could be right.... But I guess in my own opinion, I can't really agree with you....
Instead being busy with trying to judge the 'value' of your friends, you could be doing better just by appreciating them.... Think they're making too much use of you and not sincere at all? Well, you've always got the rights to choose....? To help, or not to help? Choice is YOURS....
And by judging them, the people around you could be asking this question... "Why is this friend of mine judging me like this? Value for friend? Is he/she a friend indeed...? Why is he/she avoiding me just because I want more help from him/her...?"
Go THINK about it.... Your life is yours to build and your friends are yours to search for....
As for myself... I know acquaintance... People who I'm not very close to.... I have friends.... Buddies.... People who I hardly know them.... If helping them is EASY, doesn't harm or affect others (much) and they deserves it.... Most probably I would...? Are they
really my friends...? I guess maybe not? Perhaps they might choose not to return me this favour the next time round or even backstabs me..... But the FACT is I've decided to help them THIS TIME ROUND.... All else doesn't really matter... Anyway, I can't really predict the future....?
And people who HELP me though we're just
strangers... So strange..? Do you consider them my friends....?
And I'm TOTALLY INDEBTED to my BUDDIES.... I don't TRUST them.... Because I DON'T have to.... I think TRUST don't exist between us because DOUBT don't exist too.... I've not done them much favor and they never really hesitate me help me TIME and OVER AGAIN.... The only hesitations they had would be that I'm making the correct decisions and that everything would be alright for me.... And their worries... That I would keep the burden to myself....
IF I ever TURN AROUND I'll REWARD them KINDLY as a BUDDY... And this I DARE SWEAR.....

In LIGHT I shall FEAR NOT. FOR what I AM is CUT so DEEP inside of ME.
I LIVE my FLESH and SOUL ONLY to BLEED for the OTHERS.
FEAR ME NOT. FOR I AM YOUR 'MASTER'. GIVE YOU STRENGTH. FOR YOU ARE MY 'ENEMY'.

DEVIL PHRASE IIIIn DREAMS you CAN NEVER DIE.....

Through Chaos the Devil gain strength,
to face the lord, his Creator.
Through his questionings, he recovered his true existence...

When Law & Rules are there,
they are NOT about JUSTICE.
While reality & dreams are there,
they are NOT about SURVIVAL..
And Life & Death NOT about LIVING...
Good & Evil NOT about definitions....
IF truly there is EVIL, it is NOT just one of its kind......
