I believe that friendship is one of the most important things in our life. I believe that no matter who you may be everyone needs a good friend to count on; nobody should go through life no friends. You should be able to have that someone you can tell everything to and no matter what you both are there for each other. Nobody is perfect and people should be willing to accept you for who you are. To me friendship is really important and I do not take advantage of it one second! I have worked hard for my close friends that I do have now and never plan on losing them.
I know that I can have one good friend that I can go through life with. Personal I think friendship is that most important thing to me. I can tell my friends ever secret I have. Friendship is a fine gift out of the many that life can bring. Friendship can be a commitment. I have more then one or two real, true friends, with that I feel blessed. A real friend will listen and offer advice during hard times. I believe nothing can replace a true friend, not money, cars, problems, and definitely not boys. I know that my friends support me in basically every decision I make.
Personally I have developed a strong friendship with my friend Brianna. This has taken a couple years to build and we have had our moments. We are here for each other for any issue and are always willing to put down what we are doing and listen to each other. She has turned into like one of my sisters. Brianna knows every little last thing about me you can ever think of. Yes we have had our fights, they have been rough times, but we always manage to get over them. I know she is the shoulder I can cry on when I need to.
Friends can also give you a lot of helpful tips because friends are honest when you do or say something wrong and do not tell you that was good just to make you happy. They help you to improve yourself in every way. Most of all friends forgive you. I can do everything wrong but my friends sill stand next to me and are will to give me that second chance. The definition of a friend is a person whom one knows, likes, and trust.
Friendship can be defined as "The one on whom we are dependent the most". Friendship is a bond and relation between two individuals. The one who have true friend is one of the luckiest person in the world. The two individuals who are friends of each other always feels love for one another. If someone have same feelings and interest like you, then directly or indirectly, they will be friends. In our life, we meet lot of people but we stay with only some of them. And, these are our friends.
We have very large group of our friends in our School and College. They are the company for us. In fact, they helps us in examinations, completing homework, playing different games and entertainment. Friendship is very very delicate, think and thick. If one from two friends said something bad for other, then the two friends didn't live with each other. But, the this things doesn't matter for best and true friends. Having true friendship in a life makes one Happy and caring.
In our life, we meet many people, with some of them, we stay as friend, But, there is someone with whom we have our highest level of love, affection, truthiness and heavy bond and that is our Best friend or True friend. Everyone have best friend with whom they share there love, secrets, caring and affection. True friends always have caring and affection about one another. We share almost everything with our true friends, even those things too that we don't share with our father and mother. Having a true friendship not only makes one feel better, but also helps to keep proper happiness in one's life.
Our true friend knows everything about us. Both of the individuals in a true friendship have most of the same feelings, same thinking, same styles and language. This things makes our best friend more best. Some people even have friends have more greater place in heart than the one's parents and family members. True friends helps each other in exams, completing homework, doing work given by someone or teachers, playing, entertainment and everything. True friendship helps us to live a strong and happy life always.
Don't matter that, How intelligent the friend is. The thing that matter is love and caring about each other. Some people make friends to only those who have good marks and intelligent. But, that is totally wrong thing. Friends should be made by heart not by eyes. A true friend always teaches us what is good and what's not.
A true friend always helps to other in everything. He/she always live with his/her friend in Good times as well as Bad times. Friends who don't do anything for us in our bad time are nothing. This friends are just for meaning. Two true friends always work with same thought and same idea. And most of the true friends have same goal in life.
A friend in a life is very important. Because, it teaches us How to live in life? that is very important thing. Friendship also teaches us to love with someone other than family members. A true friend always motivate us to live happy life, shows us a right path, keeps us away from bad things. Sometimes, the fight may happens between friends, but we see that, how they are backed again.
In short, friendship teaches us to love, care, affect, share, loyalty, true person, patience etc. In fact, it makes us strong and happy person. Friendship is also a test that we have to pass. Friendship also shows us the path of our life. It makes us happy and keeps us away from bad thing, bad habits and evil.
Friends are needed to one another when they have troubles and difficulties and problems. We spend our most of the time with our friends by talking, discussing. Before choosing our friend, we are lot of attracted by their body language, behavior, outlook and attitude. Hence, it is very necessary to choose our best friend.
Some friends live their best friends due to some reasons like education in other city/school. And, this make them away from one another. But, these friends should always have contact with each other even they are away from one another.
Today, many companies have meet the other bad companies and bad friends which are destroying their life, showing wrong path for life. But, we do have time. We should carefully choose our friend. Not necessary intelligence. Only habit and caring matters.
So, True friends are pillar of life. They are the precious gift that we have achieved. We should learn to love, care, affection, patience with our friends. Feeling and caring are the two most important things between two friends. One's friendship can break due to some reasons, but restoring the friendship again is also one of the most important point.
