Friendship

Friendship The human survival is based on friendship. From the highest authority to the lowest bums living on the streets all of them have experienced in some way or the other one of these different kinds of friendships. We take this friendship for granted because it is something that exists naturally in society and most of us never really have to actually go out into the world looking for a friend. Those who have had to live in a foreign country or in new surroundings have learned how important this is in life. The feeling of loneliness is enough to drive a person to near madness. So in conclusion, we cannot thrive successfully as individuals or as a society without having some form of friendship with other individuals. It was a great man, Mark Twain, who once said, "Grief can take care of itself, but to get the full value of joy you must have somebody to divide it with." There is a freedom from both people to express their opinions to each other in order to strengthen the friendship. It does not matter whether the marriage or friendship is by choice or by force. Any form of friendship is based on the simple rules of honesty and trust. These are understood even before it starts. It is this that makes us human. They do not want to know about it or they do not understand it enough. It is a system like any other, and whether it is between spouses or parents and children or friends, the same rules will apply. These rules can be summarized by one word – trustworthiness. If you take your friends for granted then the same happens to you. You don’t realize the true essence of friendship because that friendship would be superficial. All forms of friendships will change with time; some will be strengthened as the members begin to see each other more clearly, and trust each other unconditionally.
