A friend is a gift you give to yourself. Friends are those people in your life with whom
you do not have any blood relation. It’s a relation of love and affection towards other people.
Your friend is someone with whom you feel comfortable and can easily share your thoughts
and feelings. You do not have to think twice when you are with your friends. A true friend
loves you unconditionally, understands you, but never judges you and always tries to support
you and give you good advice.
A true friend is one will always be there when you need someone. He will leave all his
important works but will never leave you alone, especially in your difficult times. That is
why it is said "a friend in need is a friend indeed". Difficult times are the best time to realize
who your true friends are. Blessed are the souls who have true friends. It does not matter how
many friends you have, what matters is how many true friends you have. Friends show us
how to live a life in a different way; they are the ones who can change our viewpoints for
good. There is no growth of the person without any friend. It’s essential to have a friend to
understand life.
