About friends and value of time

2014-5-9 16:18:12
I think everyone needs friends. A friend is just like a soft wind, or rather a beautiful beam of sunshine. To be exact, he can give you many things you want. When you are happy, you can share your happiness with your friends; when you are not happy, your friends will also can to help you.

Your friends may be of many different kinds. Some of them may play happily with you; some others may have a pleasant talk to you, and of course you may talk to some of them hear to hear. We can’t say which kind of friends we need most, as each kind is necessary.

Once I got an old saying which goes like this: “Friends are thieves of time”. I wondered. I couldn’t understand it exactly, as I thought it was a joke that friends had something to do with thieves. Then I asked my foreign teacher about it. She told me that was because someone thought everyone work most of the time, and friends might take up your time, so they were thieves of your time. I thought it was funny. I even wanted to ask them, “Don’t you think you are happy when you are staying with your friends? Isn’t happiness an important thing?”

If one lives without friends, I can’t imagine his life in the world. And if one has good friends, even only one, I think he may be the luckiest one in the world. (244 words)

THE VALUE OF TIME


I always think there is not enough time. For example, I have just taken a three-day holiday. But when I look back, I just feel that it’s only one day. There goes a proverb, “Time is money”. Now I want to say, time is more precious than money, because when money is spent, we can earn some more again. However, when time is gone or lost, never will it return.

Time goes without being noticed. The time for our study and work is usually limited. So I think we must make full use of our time. But it’s a pity that I am always not aware of the importance of time until it’s too late.

So I think, I should get into the good habit of saving time because wasting time is equal to wasting one’s life. Do not put off what can be done today till tomorrow! (148 words)
