Sometimes, a so-called friend encourages you to settle for less than your best effort. Sometimes, a so-called friend wants you to do something and act in a way that you know, in your gut, is wrong. Sometimes, a so-called friend makes fun of others and belittles the accomplishments of those who succeed. Sometimes, a so-called friend isn't very friendly, and doesn't really care about you.

A friend puts no limits or conditions or constraints on you, and leads his own successful life while still being there as a pillar of support for your efforts. A friend wants to be the best, and wants you to be the best. The best friend
