Keep Distance

Unless we are with family member, we must be close together, but with friends, we must keep distance. Too close, will cause unpleasant.
We do not have to learn from old saying that friendship should be shallow, not to be too deep related. We just keep a normal friends ship.
The best way is to keep the philosophy of “Fire Place.” When we have a fire place at home in winter time, we can enjoy the warmer, but, still we cannot be too close or we shall be burned by the power of fire. We have to keep a certain distance, feeling warmer not burned.
In our life, we must have friends whom we needed when we have something requiring help. We cannot live alone in this world. We must select friends. Bad friends will bring us disaster.
Even so intimate as husband and wife, we must also live a period of free time of each other. Too close will create unhappiness in life.
In the books of The Dream of Red Mansions, four generation lived together in one big house. It gave many troubles to the grandmother who was the in charge of the whole family.
