Friends are Hard to Find, True Ones Even Harder
It is understandable that we don’t know a lot of people yet having been here recently. But who needs a lot of acquaintances when you have a few but true friends. We’ve only met them a few months back but sometimes it feels like you’ve known them forever. We feel comfortable in their presence and they’re always there when you need a hand, or just someone to spend time with. In each meeting, we feel their warm welcome that allows for each of us to learn more about each other. I once heard that we should be wary of the people that we meet here, even of our fellow Filipinos. Someone told me about the back stabbing and back biting that happen among “Filipino friends” here in Qatar, although I know that this is doesn’t happen solely among Pinoys. But I’m just glad that we didn’t have to put up with that. We’re just thankful for having such good friends especially in a place and time when real friends are hard to find.
