About this Quote

This quote talks to the concept that when times are excellent, it is easy to discover individuals who want to be our friends. We can be surrounded by people who more than happy to be in our company and enjoy the great times. Nevertheless, when times are tough, it is much more difficult to find true good friends. It is only in hardship that we can genuinely see who our real good friends are, as they are the ones who will wait us and support us through the hard times. This quote advises us that true relationship is not based upon convenience or circumstance, but on loyalty and dedication. It is just in hardship that we can really know who our true buddies are.
