I look for these qualities and characteristics in people. Honesty is number one, respect, and absolutely the third would have to be loyalty...
They say that experience is the teacher of all things and what better way to learn than living and experiencing life in the good times and in the not so good times. Experience: that most brutal of teachers. But you learn, my God do you learn.
I have come to learn that many are not really who/what they claim or appear to be. I have learnt that not because someone says they are your friend means they have good intentions towards you. I have learnt that many people are just fake and that they only pretend to like each other just because it is simpler.
This I have never understood. Why someone would pretend to like another person when in reality they actually hate/dislike that person. I guess we are all at some time or another guilty of this. I sometimes wish we could stop pretending we like each other and just accept that this is not always possible. I wish we could be honest with each other and just say, "I really don't like you." Does this make a person bad?
Even I at times have encountered people I don't really like that much. We all have that person/persons in our lives we would rather not, but again life is not perfect and we have to deal with what we are given in the best possible way we can. I mean we just can't make them disappear:)
If life were that simple. My dad always said that honesty is the best policy. Sometimes I think we all lack some degree of honesty. Seems that for some it is much better to hide behind the truth that to come straight out and say it....
As they say, "Everything we hear is an opinion, not a fact. Everything we see is a perspective, not the truth."
Have a good day all and remember, "For every good reason there is to lie, there is a better reason to tell the truth."

If you tell the truth, you don't have to remember anything.
