Two scientists who are compatible with water and fire (people with different personalities can also become friends)
In the19th century, there were two German chemists-Justus von Liebig and Willer. Their cooperation and friendship is an anecdote in the history of science and ethics.

Exquisite story
The shortest distance
Many years ago, The Times published a difficult question, asking for an answer publicly. The topic is: "What is the shortest distance from London to Rome?" Many people looked for answers from geographical location, but they all lost. In the end, only one answer won the prize, and that is "onegoodfriend."
With friends, talking and laughing along the way, not only will you not feel that the road is long, but you will sigh that the road is so short. In the journey of life, friends can support and help each other. With the encouragement of our friends, our steps will be more steady and solid.
There is only one and a half friends in life.
Once upon a time, there was an upright man who became friends with all the heroes in the world. Before he died, he said to his son: Although I have been wandering in rivers and lakes since I was a child, I have made one and a half friends in my life.
The son was puzzled, so the father leaned close to his ear to explain, and then said to him, you will meet my friend as I told you, and you will naturally understand the nature of friends.
The son first went to his father's friend and said to him, I am the son of XXX, and now I am being hunted by the court. I am eager to join you, hoping to save him! Hearing this, the man couldn't think, so he called his son and ordered him to take off his clothes and put them on the unknown court criminal, and at the same time let his son put on the clothes of the court criminal.
My son understands: when your life and death are at stake, only those who can truly treat you or even give up their own flesh and blood to save you can be called your friends.
The son went to his father's half-friend again and said the same thing with a fist in his hand. Hearing this, the half-friend said to the court criminal who was asking for help, son, I can't save you for such a big thing. I will give you enough money. You can run, run for your life. I promise I won't turn you in ...
My son has learned that people who can protect themselves wisely when you are in trouble and don't hurt you when you are frustrated can be called your half friends.
People who betray friendship will come to no good end.
Donkeys and foxes go hunting together. They suddenly met the lion. Seeing that the situation was not good, the fox immediately ran to the lion and promised to give him the donkey as long as he escaped safely. The lion agreed and the fox lured the donkey into a trap. Seeing that the donkey could never escape, the lion immediately caught the fox and ate the donkey before eating it.
In other words, those who betray their friends and friendship will come to no good end. (Aesop's Fables)
See the truth in trouble
Two good friends were walking on the mountain road when suddenly a big bear appeared in front of them. One of them climbed the tree quickly, and the other one didn't have the ability, so he fell to the ground and pretended to be dead. The bear came and touched the face of the man who fell to the ground, and then left. Because bears are harmless to dead animals. The tree climber climbed down safely and asked, "The bear just whispered to you. What did he say? " The fallen man replied, "The bear told me that people who are killed and can't help are not good friends."

Black dog said: "The greatest happiness in life is to live with loyal and reliable friends, help each other when they are in trouble, eat and sleep together, love each other, seize the opportunity to make friends happy, and find their own happiness in the happiness of friends-can there be more happiness in the world?" Life would be much easier if you and I became such close friends. "
"Great, my baby, let's be friends!" Yellow dog said enthusiastically. The black dog is also very excited: "dear yellow dog, there is not a day when we don't fight." I feel very sad several times! " ! Why bother? The master is very good. We eat too much and live in spacious rooms. Fighting is totally unreasonable! Humans regard us as a model of friendship, so let's prove to humans with actions that there are no obstacles to forming friendship! Come on, shake hands! ""yes, yes! " Yellow dog shouted.
The two new friends immediately embraced warmly and licked each other's faces. Just then, the chef threw out a delicious bone. The two new friends immediately rushed to the bone like lightning, rolled together and bit each other, making a handful of dog hair flying all over the sky, until a bucket of cold water was poured on their backs, and the two babies were taken apart.

Improper friendship will bring disaster.
Rats are unfortunately loved by frogs. The frog foolishly tied the mouse's foot to his own. At first, they walked on the ground, walked around, everything was normal, and they could eat millet. When he came to the pond, the frog took the mouse into the water, and he played in the water himself, quacking with joy. The poor mouse was flooded and died. Soon, the mouse surfaced, but its feet were still tied to the frog. The kite flew here, saw the mouse, rushed into the water and caught it. The frog was brought out of the water and became the kite's food.

Friendship is never far away.
One night, a man had a dream that he was walking on the beach with a bodhisattva, and suddenly bits and pieces of his life flashed in the air; He found that in every scene, there were two pairs of footprints on the beach, one was his and the other was the bodhisattva's ... After the last scene, he looked back at the footprints on the beach and found that there were only one pair of footprints on the beach several times! And those times happened to be the lowest tide and the saddest time in his life. ...
He asked the Bodhisattva doubtfully, "You promised me that you would follow the sound to save the suffering. Once I vowed to follow you, and you would always walk by my side to protect me, but I found that in the most painful time of my life, there was only one pair of footprints on the beach! I don't understand why you left me when I needed your comfort most? "
The Bodhisattva kindly and gently replied, "I will remember you, protect you and never leave you. In your most difficult and painful times, you only saw a pair of footprints, because that's when I held you in my arms ... "
When we are faced with a test, we often think that we are lonely. When we feel most isolated, calm down and have a look, and you will find that there are actually many people with you. ...

Is it rare to have a bosom friend in life?
In ancient times, the economic blockade and the bondage of various ethical codes built a gap between people, and it was reasonable for the ancients to find a confidant. We are happy to live in such an open era. Here and now, the exclamation of "a bosom friend is rare in life" seems a bit out of date. However, among us avant-garde trendsetters, there are many people who have this kind of psychology. From a sexual point of view, they all made the same mistake and narrowly understood the meaning of bosom friend.
A bosom friend is like-minded, but some people misinterpret him as a person with the same personality as themselves, and even agree with him on any issue. As we all know, "there are no two identical leaves in the world." Under such harsh conditions, you can only find your own shadow. What holds this idea is actually individualism, taking its own interests as the center, measuring others by its own standards and imposing its own ideas on others. Is it a bit paranoid and morbid to sigh that "a bosom friend is rare in life"?
Confidantes are not uncommon. Open your heart and mind, and you will find that many people around you have the same noble interests and aspirations as you, so only the two can break the restrictions of time and space on intimate friends.
Debate on the different interests of huaguan
Today, I read "Different Interests" and admire Ning Guan for treating Kim as "stone-like", but I am quite puzzled by his final conclusion that "a son is not my friend", which not only causes deep thinking on the criteria and attitude of choosing friends.
Like-minded, similar personality, of course, is very important for making friends, but this is not the only criterion. For example, Guan Ning in the article concluded that "a child is not my friend" just because Hua Xin "picked up the gold and threw it away" and "abandoned the book".
Everyone has his own ambition, so why should we have the same ideological ambition when choosing friends? Personality differences in choosing friends are not necessarily bad things, but complementary. If you are a weak person and stay with strong friends, you will become strong over time, just like going to Zhu Zhechi.
Perhaps Guan Ning saw some ugly places in Hua Xin's personality, such as money worship and official position, but as a friend, he should not abandon him by breaking off diplomatic relations, but should realize this with reason and emotion, persuade him well and help him correct his shortcomings. If Guan Ning had persuaded him instead of abandoning him, Hua Xin would not have become someone else's eagle dog.
Therefore, we should not be too hard on our friends. If a friend makes a mistake, we should help him correct it instead of breaking up casually.
