Well, there are so many times when I try to give relevant suggestions to my relatives according to their situation but today I want to highlight a time when my best friend Kamal asked my opinion. She is my childhood friend as we meet in elementary school. In fact we know each other over 15 years. I still remember exactly about three months ago she called me to visit a restaurant which is in the vicinity of my town for a cup of coffee. I cannot forget that moment when I went to a cafe, sat on chair and looked Kamal face like she was very tensed. Without wasting time I requested to Kamal to explain own problem. Then she told me as she had completed her BSc nursing recently and now she was confused into both situations like whether she should go to job or really how to be pursue further study to become a multi-specialist health expert. So in fact she directly said what I did if I was at this place so to be honest I gave answer. If I had certificate of nursing degree that definitely I gave interview to conduct a lucrative job as well as I joined job because it’s helped me to afford my expenses as well as I can easily support my family along with that it helps me to get practical experience so I think these statements are enough to give my opinion. So now a day she applied my this suggestion at her life like she is working in hospital as a staff and we met in last weekend and she was happy and grateful of me like it was a time when I gave accurate and relevant suggestion to my best friend Kamal last time.

Well, there are so many times when I try to give relevant suggestions to my relatives according to their situations, but today I want to highlight a time when my best friend Kamal asked for my opinion. She is my childhood friend, as we met in elementary school. In fact, we have known each other for over 15 years. I still remember that about three months ago, she called me to visit a restaurant in the vicinity of my town for a cup of coffee. I cannot forget that moment when I went to the café, sat on a chair, and looked at Kamal's face; she seemed very tense. Without wasting time, I asked Kamal to explain her problem. Then she told me that she had recently completed her BSc in nursing and was confused about whether she should go for a job or pursue further studies to become a multi-specialist health expert. She directly asked what I would do if I were in her place, so to be honest, I gave her my answer. If I had a nursing degree, I would definitely apply for interviews to secure a lucrative job, as it would help me afford my expenses and support my family. Additionally, it would provide me with practical experience, so I thought these statements were enough to give my opinion. Nowadays, she has applied my suggestion in her life; she is working in a hospital as a staff member. We met last weekend, and she was happy and grateful to me. It was a time when I gave accurate and relevant suggestions to my best friend Kamal.
