TO HAVE NUMBER OF FRIENDS WHO INSTEAD OF HELPING AND SOLVING PROBLEMS ARE BETTER THAN WHO USED TO PULL LEGS AT EACH AND EVERY STEP,I AM EXPERIENCING THAT IN TOO STEP ALSO THERE ARE FRIENDS IN EVERY BODIES CONTACT LIST,BUT THEY KNOWINGLY LETTING OTHER FRIEND DOWN SO WHICH WILL BE BETTER TO HAVE FRIENDS OF CATEGORY ONE OR TWO(ONE ASPER QUESTION OTHER ONLY TO INCREASE LIST OF FRIENDS)
Quite surprisingly, here is what I found.
A friend in need is a friend indeed
Meaning
It is sometimes suggested that this phrase means 'someone who needs your help becomes friendly in order to obtain it'. That isn't supported by the derivation (below). Most people understand it to mean, 'someone who helps you when you are in need is a true friend'.
Origin
A version of this proverb was known by the 3rd century BC. Quintus Ennius wrote: 'Amicu certus in re incerta cernitur'. This translates from the Latin as 'a sure friend is known when in difficulty'.
I do not know how much do you all agree with this........
At the end of the day I believe that a friend is someone who would stand by you forever not just when you are in trouble or in need......
what say people??
Dikshit Ji,
Thanks, first of all, that you have made me to think and write. Sincerely I am on Too Step to improve my written communication abilities. I welcome such comments.
If its you who has rated me -ve to make me feel how it feels, then no problem because Mr Kalyan Kumar has also commented on your example and Varun is totally out of topic. But there are many in Too Step who disagreed with my answer without rating me negative. Even I get answers of the questions which I have not asked (Pls. refer to my question on DMRC mishap). But I never rate thumbs down. When you write, sometimes you are not able to communicate correctly depending upon (a) your own writing skill (b) reader's reading skill and (c) reader's perspective. If something irrelevant is written sometimes it may not be a reason for thumbs down. Until and unless it is reflected that the attempt is deliberate (like being repetitively out of context etc).
"thogh I was fully insisting on too step ,it was just an example"this is what you are writing. Now how to read your mind by reading this? I just chose to question your example in my answer.
Moreover if one expects that all the answers will come out of the same box from which the question has come out then no use of this forum. I do not think that a senior citizen wants to understand the meaning of friendship (or the similar other questions by others) from kids of 30-40 yrs. It is only to know the views and provoke thoughts, isn’t it? I may be wrong in understanding your question from your perspective but then different views and unique way of looking at questions shall be welcome. At least I think so.
Mr. Vivek
what u say when a question has been deliberatly answered wrong and also thumbing down,state ur feeling now.(when the question is something else and answer differs from main subject also)thogh I was fully insisting on too step ,it was just an example,TOO STEP list is also supposed to a list of persons who have got similar ideas,and to suggest a good thing and rectifying the other if he has made amistake.
1. This friends' list is not "that" friends' list
2. I have made friends in too step to contradict me if my thinking is (a) not proper (b) too unique to be practical. So if they pull my leg then they do exactly what I want them to do. But they give a lot of support also, I want it or not (who will not love that).
3. I have never felt delibrate leg pulling at too step. There may be some traces of such instances but they are neither conspicuous nor do they get support from the members.
Alka's finding is really surprising.
dear sir i joined this site newly,i am workin as a qa/qc engineer in qatar in tower project,but i am more interested in planning and constrn mangement ,i request your guidance for some part time courses which will be useful for me to change my trade, i know P3(primavera) but in my current job profile i am not used to it
well said sir and it is a great statement and i like this so much. I have many friends with whom I say 'hi' everyday, but, I had to think as to who is real friend. I had the occassion to say that "a friend in need in the friend in need". About friendship, J.K.Rowling has said excellantly in her speech to Harward and it can be heard through youtube.com. Thank you sir.

Manju ji ,bahut sundar, Jab kabhee aap too step par nahin dikhateen ,to sannata aapke kavi swaroop ke dikhate hi chahal pahal najar aati hai. |
Internet ki is duniya me jisko chaho use bula lo shart yah hai ki vah bhee usase connected ho, yadi phir bee jawab na mile todil se yaad karo phir bhee hajir na ho to dil me chah nahi? KYA KHOOB LIKHA HAI TEWARIJI AB TO KAVITA KHAALI NAHI HEE JAYEGI. |
