TRUE FRIEND

UNEDITED SAMPLE LITERARY ARTICLE
By Roger Perez Turingan
IV-Sir Isaac Newton


A true friend is not like an umbrella and jacket in rainy days nor a hat or fan in sunny days. It is like neither a book that will teach you a lesson nor a pen that can express yourself. It’s not like a cell phone that you will always have wherever you go. It is not like a joke that will make you smile or a mirror that reflects yourself. It functions not like a scientific calculator that will help you solve your problem. It is not like a handkerchief that will put away your tears or an eyeglass that will make things clearer. Yes, a true friend can be compared to any materials things but should not because materials things do fade but true friend does not.

True friend in Mathematics is constant because it will never change. In English, it is literature because it will always remain forever. It is oxygen in Science because no one can live without it.

But for a Roger Perez Turingan, a true friend is a person that will believe you even if you don’t explain yourself to his/her. It is non sense to explain to a fake friend because they will never trust you.

It is also wrong that when a person is not your enemy then he/she is your friend. A friend is worth a happy moment while a TRUE FRIEND is worth DYING FOR.
