Good morning @gbenga. Yeah, your right sir, but we often make mistakes differentiating friends, colleagues, allies and family. Today family has trangress blood relation. A friend is someone you can easily communicate with, a colleague is someone within your work environment and an ally is someone you can rely on or unite with for a mutual benefit but someone you call family is friend, colleague, family all in one.
Perfectly being able to distinguish who a person is and ability to take advantage of it can boost your progress in life.
