I used to genuinely believe that the most important thing in a person is being transparent and honest 100% because I thought it would tookake so much courage for one to be true both to people and to themselves regardless of the situation.

But one day, when we were having a very light, spontaneous conversation with one of my best friends, she said "I think the most important thing is...

It's a little confusing not mentioning who the others are when you say "we".

It was an answer that was very unexpected for me that. I still remember that moment very clearly.

At first, I explained the reasoning behind my answer and why I didn't agree so much onwith hers.

Sure it was sovery important but not that much... maybe it would be number 2?

It was scary because we were home alone, and she hasd reached to a point where she unconsciously attempted to injure herself... And I desperately tried to reach out to someone for help while trying to prevent her from injuring herself and calm her down in every way I could...

While all these wereis was happening, of course, I got exposed to her inner communication with herself, put the pieces together and the story behind revealed itself to me...

I just siat by the window and looked at the sky from late night to dawn... and It clicked.

I felt it toin my bones.

Love... is what we all silently crave for... all our wounds reside in the oabsence of it.

And compassion, is the one thing that can save anthe heart from misery.

Word order

To be honest, at the time, I didn't find hers a strong answer to that questionnswer logical/ I felt that her answer didn't make much sense.

Sure, it was sois an important but not that much... maybe it would be number 2value but is it truly the most important one?

I"(Maybe) it could be..."

I remember thinking to myself like thiafterwards.

A couple years passed... One night, I had experienced a very dramatic night with one of my friends... She had a panic attack kind of thing but it was too intense, Iexperienced some sort of a panic attack but everything was a blur back then; I (still) don't even know what it washappened.

It was scary because we were home alone, and she have reached to a point where she unconsciously attempted to injure herself... And I desperately tried to reach out to someone for help while trying to prevent her injuring herself and calm her down in every way I could...

It happened a long time ago, so you can't use "has reached".

While all these wereis was happening, of course, I got exposed to her inner communication with herself, purecalled what tshe pieces together and the story behind revealed itself to me...had told me previously.

I felt it toin my bones.

I came tofinally understanood why my friend came up with the answer "compassion" that day...

I thought "It's obvious makes sense now thabut I was too ignorant to agree to thatwith her back then.

Silly me..." I thought the most important thing was being honest, and compassion maybe takes the second placefollowed by compassion.

How far I was from the understanding of the very core thingvalue of everything there is.

It was invisible to my eye just could not understand why she said so, and I was so sure of myself... That night, I cried silently with an aching heart, and changed my mind about it.

Love... is what we all silently crave for... all our wounds reside in the oabsence of it. (?)

I used to genuinely believe that the most important thing (in a person is beingtransparency and honesty / a person can be is transparent and honest 100%), because I thought it would tookake so much courage for one to be true both to people and to themselves regardless of the situation.

This sentence is okay, but a little long. You can also make it into two sentences to make it a little easier to read. But long sentences are also okay, so it is up to you!

I really like those kinds of people, even though they are very rare, and I was also (proud of myself for being one / proud to say I was one).

You can also add "compassion" here without "..." and it would be a little more natural.

It was an answer very unexpected for me that I still remember that moment very clearly I still remember that moment very clearly, because it was an answer that was very unexpected for me.

To be honest, at the time, I didn't fthindk hers a strong answer to that question was very strong.

It could, I remember thinking to myself like this.

Combine like this instead.

A couple of years passed... One night, I had experienced a very dramatic night with one of my friends... She had a panic attack kind of thing but it was toosomething like a panic attack, but more intense,. I don't even know what it was.

Try to use "..." sparingly. We only use it occasionally in natural writing.

Or "I'm not even sure what it was."

It was scary because we were home alone, and she has reached to a point where she unconsciously attempted to injure herself... And I desperately tried to reach out to someone for help while trying to prevent her from injuring herself and calming her down in everany way I could...

How far I was from the understanding of the very core thing of everything there is.

This is okay, but sounds very formal. Instead, try "I was so far from understanding the core of everything."

It was invisiunable to my eysee why she said so, and I was so sure of myself... That night, I cried silently with an aching heart, and changed my mind about it.

"Invisible to my eye" is usually for items you can actually see. Try this instead.

Love... is what we all silently crave for... aAll our wounds reside in the oabsence of it.

Very poetic and beautiful sentiment!

And compassion, is the one thing that can save an heart from misery.

It was...really is that important!

Only then was I finally have gottenable to (see... / understand).
