The Three Types Of Friends In Life According To Aristotle

1. Friends For A Reason:

With this friendship, both parties obtain a benefit from each other. The friendships are generally quite shallow. It is like a give take relationship. Also known as utility friendships because they serve a purpose, not a true bond.

Aristotle classes this friendship as evil and selfish one.

2. Friends For A Season:

Friends coming together due to similar likes, values, and activities. These friendships are often formed during school years or when in sporting teams. During the time you are friends, you enjoy each other’s company, jokes, and chatter. The friend is important and makes you feel good.

Of the three types of friends in life, friends for a season are short-lived as, with time, we change and form new friendships.

3. Friends For Life:

This friendship is formed slowly. Usually, you have similar values and goals in life. A friend for life is with you, stands by you, and supports you in all you do. True friends listen and respect each other’s values and beliefs. Good friendships sometimes start out as a school friendship.

Of the three types of friendships, friends for life are the most meaningful. These friends are true friends. They are rare and invaluable.

Who are the real Robbers? 🍂

During a robbery in America, the bank robber shouted to everyone in the bank: "Don't move. The money belongs to the State. Your life belongs to you." Everyone in the bank laid down quietly. This is called the "Mind Changing Concept." Changing the conventional way of thinking. When the bank robbers returned home, the younger robber (MBA-trained) told the older robber (who has only completed Year 6 in primary school): "Big brother, let's count how much we got." The older robber rebutted and said: "You are very stupid. There is so much money it will take a long time to count. Tonight, the TV news will tell us how much we robbed from the bank." This is called "Experience.” Nowadays, the experience is more important than paper qualifications! After the robbers had left, the bank manager told the bank supervisor to call the police quickly. But the supervisor said to him: "Wait! Let us take out $10 million from the bank for ourselves a...

MY FATHER IS A POLICEMAN
