When I was invited to write a reflection on a desert tales Guillermo Herrera couple did not hesitate a moment about what was right for the job "Writing in the Sand", the friendship has been important in my life and being an adult now have the opportunity to write about this issue has filled me with excitement, expectation and joy for the deep friendship that I feel with William, Lucia and Claudio.
I sat down at my computer listening to music, with the window open so you can see into the park outside my house and meet with friends who meet at various activities on a warm Sunday Bogota and of course accompanied a mate, that symbol of friendship so important to many, because through this we can establish a shared interaction in thoughts and emotions.
decided to prepare for writing, I searched books Frankl, Ortega y Gasset and Buber. After a few moments of reflection I decided to ask the true philosophers on this subject: my friends. I turned to technology and through a chat consulted several of them their ideas about and so I was inspired to this task and call it as I called her.
What better way to reflect on the friendship that writing about what those who share this experience gave us life. One of them told me that "friends are like blood, because they are when a wound", the vast majority of people consulted I mentioned this quality, namely that a person has at times it seems very difficult to walk by himself. Might say that friendship helps human beings to display the values \u200b\u200bof attitude and so something that gives meaning "friendship" helps to discover the meaning in suffering. Friendship is thus a factor that helps to a life full of meaning.
Friends are the brothers that you choose in the way of life, I wrote a friend. Are those who have decided to join us in our journey of life, friendship is one that along with love allows us to capture the unique values \u200b\u200bthat are held in such person, in view of its uniqueness. When you see friends in this way to forgive the errors is easier, because experience is valued from only experienced with a real "you." The pride is the opposite of love alone allows us to observe behavior and not the whole essence of the person, restricting our awareness of values \u200b\u200band losing the holistic vision of the friend.
In conclusion we can restate what was said by Nietzsche saying that whoever finds the meaning of friendship, which will be written in stone, can overcome the difficulties that will be written in the sand for the wind to erase them.
