Love. Surely this covers everything. 1 Corinthians 13:4-8
Love covers honesty, trust, kindness, patience, helpfulness, dedication etc.
You will never hurt someone if you love them.

[sunnyt]

let us not forget- a good sense of humor! forgiving, gentle ( sometimes a mean barb can hurt as much as a slap)

 

[rosewolf18]

I think I would want to find all of these characterisics in my friends. But I think I would want love the most.
I Corinthian 13:13 "And now these three remain: faith, hope, and love. But the greatest of these is love."
But there will always be pain. Love cannot save anyone from being hurt or keep anyone from hurting the ones they love.
