My true meaning of friendship

I heard one saying sometimes ago, well, I do not know how true this statement I'm about to make is, but let's just hear what you have to say about it in the comment section..
And tge statement was that

If you have or are in a circle of friends and thn you have a problem worth about 50,000 naira, and you can't call at least a maximum of 10 people and then the problem is solved, then you are not in a good or the right circle of friends, change it!

Well, it sound so fun and interesting and intriguing, but I thought of my life, if a friend calls me at this very moment, telling me they've got a problem or the other that's about some amount of money worth 50k naira, Can i contribute a reasonable amount to console the person, does that mean the person is in the wrong friend zone?

I'm not sure financial crisis is enough to weigh your friendship with another, well I'm just saying...

They say:

Show me your friends and I'll tell you who you are.

I have thought of this word, and so I have learned to select my friends from my colleagues, you know, in my life right now, there are a lot of people that I do know, on WhatsApp I have also of contact, but the thing is how many do I chat with? There are a lot if people that I met, via that word, I have learned how to filter my friend from just people that I know, from people that I say hi to, people that I play with, cause not everyone that I play with is my friend...

Who do I call friends now? These are people who in one way or another, there is something I am able to get and then add to my life, something positive, people that I know that the more time I spend with them, the better of me that is revealed, the more I stay with them, the more I grow intellectually, well that's not all, this life is a give and take one, as much as I am able to tap to whatsoever they are able to produce to edify me, I am also able to deliver, and so now the equation is balanced...

So If I call you my true friend, the first thing you should notice is that you are adding positive values to my life and I am also adding value to you, maybe not equally, but they is just a flow of growth amongst us...

(Picture of I and my friends)

Right now, if I look at my circle of friends, I see that that I have moved from where I used to be to where I am, I indeed have true friends that irrespective of how situations are with them, I can still call them, people that i can count on, people that can also count on me.

Even tho right now I am not financially efficient, I know that there'd be a time that's coming very soon that this will be a story of the past, that friends will not just bank on my availability but also financially...

The circle of friends I am with now will also grow to the point where nothing can bring us down anymore, we are getting there...

If you are reading this and you know tht deep down you are my friend, I love you, and no matter how crazy or sarcastic we play, always put in your mind that I have never taken you for granted since we became friends, and I will try as much as possible never to take you fir granted, you have gottene to where I am today, we'd still meet at the better end...

In conclusion:
Just never stop, I repeat never stop, I repeat in a different format, consistency of our hardwork will surly pay, we just do not know when, let's just also be happy and ready, you don't know who is watching...

Thank you all for your time, thanks for reading till now, I appreciate your efforts, just know that you are not taking for granted, I love you all; Bye.

Friendship is indeed beyond financial capacity; it's about mutual growth, understanding, and shared values. Your perspective on choosing friends wisely and valuing them is commendable. Good post @zara09
