Sometimes it seems that everything goes right for certain people and it’s easy to compare yourself with them. You can’t help but notice that they seem to have it so much easier than you.
The key word here is “seem”. Things are nearly always different than they seem. Some people who seem to be living a perfect life have been through some pretty low times, or will soon hit a low time, or maybe they’re even going through a low time right then even if it doesn’t look like it.
May be the circumstances around them look great, but inside they’re struggling with some personal sorrow you would never imagine they had. Maybe they’re even looking at you and thinking that you have it so good, because there’s something about your life that they wish they had. They don’t know that you’re weeping into your pillow every night.
God don’t do anything that’s unjust or unkind. Everybody’s life is balanced- the happy and the sad, the good and the bad. It doesn’t all come at once, but in time, things do even out- if not on Earth, then for sure in the afterlife.

REAL FRIENDS
Having friends makes you feel special. When you have even one good friend- someone who really cares about you- you feel like you’re on top of the world. Sometimes having friends can be so important to you that you feel like you’re willing to do just about anything to make or keep them.
The best way to win real friends is to be a good friend. Show people that you really care about them. Make an effort to find out what things they like, and what things bother them. Sympathize with them when they’re sad, and celebrate with them when they’re happy.
Love people and they’ll love you. Be kind to others and they’ll be kind to you. I know it sounds basics, but it works!
If you want real friends, true friends, don’t bother with the putting on a front and trying to be what you think they’d want you to be. Let them see the real you.
Be loyal, too. If someone is saying bad things about your friends when they’re not around, don’t just go along with the crowd and laugh it off. Stick up for them. That’s real FRIENDSHIP.
