Friendship Vs Self Principle

People must be thinking why am I writing this topic. It becomes rather interesting as i move on [being paranoid =.='']. Let's define the both words first. Friendship is given the defination of the cooperative and supportive relationship between friends. Meanwhile, self  principle is given a defination of having principle set in their own respective lives. Many must be wondering that how are these two related in our lives?I believe that it happens daily as it comes and goes without our awareness. Sometimes when we think back these two statements, you may find your self in dilemma because you don't know which statement do you want to fulfill. You'll have these words in the mouth of the heart.

" If I mix friendship and emotion during work, it sounds un-proffessional to me, as it breaks my principle and    my reputation will drop"
"But if i care about my principle, my friends will say I don't care for them, then friendship is getting vague then  "poofs" it's gone...and you'll get lots of complains"

Many found out that they will have these kind of problems haunting their entire life... Some even can't sleep after doing something breaking their own principle. However, there is no need for us to be sad, friendship should be kept aside during work no matter how long your friendship has been going on. We should be a little more proffessional able to devide tham equally. "Work is work, play is play, and so on..." During work, we should put private "stuffs" a side such as friendship, emotional and etc... We NEVER must let our emotional to control us and affect our decision. And one more thing, never let others affect your decision. We should also never let gossips affect us. Let others talk behind you, or else you'll have too much to care, resulting in mental break down. There are times we do need to look into friendship, but it is not definately during our work time. If your friendship is strong enough, your friends will definately understand your prinsip and try not go do anything to harm your pride...If you are willing to break your principle, never blame on others. It is your own will to help people. For what i think, those with self principle should sometimes abit linient on their own especially helping other people. "Well comfort yourself" atleast I  help people.. but not as the following situation.

Stituation:
You are taking care of a prize redeeming booth and your friend won a prize and collecting from you. He is suppose to get [eg a voucher of A less valueable and your friend get to know that voucher B is more valueable. So your friend begged and asked you to exchange the voucher to voucher B. But at the same time, it is in the public... and it's against your own principle of work which is "hnesty". What will you do? In this kind of situation people will usually dilemma concerning their action....whether to stick with his honesty
 or to fulfill a friend's favour.

In life, we often come across these problems similar to the statement. Depending to situation, you really have to be felxible sometimes as not strictly just follow the principle. However, we can never allow emotional to affect our decision as it might lead to misjudge of something... Happy Reading
