The purpose of interacting with others is mutual respect, mutual appreciation, or a kind of tacit understanding and caring for each other. However, this does not mean that we have to agree on everything. True friendship does not require two people to be the same; their viewpoints can be completely different, and even if they stand for different camps and have their own principles, they can still establish a friendship that transcends interests. This is the true essence of friendship. The higher form of friendship is hidden in the concept of “harmony in diversity.” There is no need to deliberately cater to others or forcibly conform; being able to express one’s own opinions while also respecting and appreciating each other—that is the most precious bond.
