How to be a true friend 如何做個真正的朋友

Be vulnerable.

敞開心扉。

I found that the more truthful and vulnerable I was, the more empowering it was for me. ——Alanis Morissette

我發現我越誠實越坦誠，就會獲得越多的能量?！萁z·莫莉塞特

Hiding your flaws might be appropriate in a job interview, but it's not something you should do in a conversation with a friend you trust.

工作面試的時候隱藏鋒芒也許比較合適，但和自己信賴的朋友聊天時就沒必要這樣做了。

Never hesitate to speak your thoughts and feelings in their raw and unfiltered form. Who knows?

別顧慮太多，不說出自己真實的想法和感受，或是不假思索的言語。這樣做了又如何呢？

They might open up and disclose a surprising secret in return.

也許會打開彼此的心扉，你也會獲知對方的一個秘密。

Full disclosure will strengthen your friendship and make you both feel at ease in each other's company.

暢所欲言能鞏固你們的友情，還會讓彼此都覺得對方的陪伴十分舒服。
