What is a Friend?

In life every one will meet many people that say that they are your friend, but you will make only a few true friends.

What is a friend?

In the dictionary a friend is defined as one that is not hostile, or one attached to another by affection or esteem, a favored companion. a person attached to another by feelings of affection or personal regard.

A friend is much more than that. A friend is someone that will stand by you, even during the toughest times.

Friendship is about believing in your friends and helping them to achieve all they can or want to do in life. We are there for each other with hugs, advice, kind words, fights, and anger, whatever comes along. When the day ends, we are still friends who have each other no matter what happens.

We all have a desire to have friends. It is what makes us reach out of our shells and take the chance of being hurt. It is not easy figuring out who is a friend and who is not.

The relationship between people who have forged ties that include commitment, love, trust, and loyalty create some of the strongest bonds that are possible between individuals.

Sometimes these friendly relationships have histories that date back to childhood while other people seem to instantly become friends almost from the moment they meet.

Regardless of how friendships start, they should be valued and cherished. Best friends do not have to be constantly reminded about how strong the bonds are that they have with each other, but it adds strength to the relationship when there is a special time of the year that is dedicated to celebrating friendships.



There are many valuable things in life, but friendship may be one of the most important.
To live life without the experience of friendship, is life without living. Human interaction is a
necessity to survival, but developed friendships are an essential to the successful well being of anyone.

A friend is a person whom one knows, likes and trusts. but to all, friendship has no defined terminology..
