The Meaning of a True Friend.

Once there was a young girl named Jennifer who was very friendly
and popular in her class. She was friends with everyone in her class.
She had so many friends at school and in her neighborhood.

On Friendship Day, her class organized a party in which everybody

had to make presents and give them to their best friends. Jennifer
was expecting a lot of gifts from her friends on that day. However,
when the day arrived, all the presents were shared among her classmates. She was the only one who didn’t receive a
single present. She felt terrible and cried a lot because no one thought of her as one of their best friends.

On that day when she got home, Jennifer asked her mother: “Mom, where can I find a true friend?” Her mother was
surprised, so Jennifer told her mom about her day at school. She cried and hugged her mom. Her mother said:

“You cannot buy friends with a smile. If you really want true friends, you will have to give them real time and affection.
You’re a great girl, but you can’t be close friends with everybody. There just isn’t enough time for everyone, so it’s
only possible to have a few true friends. Most will be your classmates. Your close friends you can count on one hand”.
