When I was about 10, I was walking down the street with my mother. She stopped to speak to Mr Lee. I knew I could see Mr Lee anytime around the neighborhood, so I just stood there. After we passed him, my mother stopped and said something unforgettable, "You let that be the last time you ever walk by somebody you know without opening your mouth to speak, because even a dog can wag its tail when it passes you on the street." That sentence sounds simple but it made me become who I am.

At work, I used to say hello to the president of the company and ask him how our business was doing. But I also spoke to the people in the cafe? and people who cleaned the buildings, and asked them how their children were doing, for every single person deserves to be accepted, no matter how humble (卑微的)they are. I remember that after a few years of passing by the president, I had the courage to ask him for a chat. We had a great talk. At some point, when I asked him how far he thought I could go in his company, he said that if I wanted to, I could get all the way to his seat.

I've become vice president, but that hasn't changed how I treat people. I speak to people wherever I am. Speaking to people creates a pathway into their world, and it lets them come into mine, too. The day you speak to someone who has his head down and then see him lift it up and smile, you will realize how powerful it is just to open your mouth and say hello.

True friends are hard to find. 【小题1】 . Only then will we have a valuable friendship.

【小题2】Through good times or bad times, they will stand by your side. They will not leave you alone when things get difficult. They will accept you without trying to change you. They will bring new and exciting things into your life and make it richer.

True friends will keep your secrets as you will keep theirs. They will be honest and you can always believe in them. 【小题3】, you don’t have to worry about what you may say wrong. We can enjoy this freedom only with friends.

Friendship is a two-way street. To find a true friend you must be a true friend as well. 【小题4】and share the good times with them. Offer them the same things they give to you. Friendship will fall apart quickly if only one person is giving and putting effort into it.

You will find that there is nothing more valuable than having a true friend by your side to share life with. Just as someone puts it “【小题5】”.

If you want to have some sincere friends, You must treat others sincerely. That is the best tips.
