Friendship is a relationship of mutual affection between two or more people. Friendship is a stronger form of interpersonal bond than an association. Friendship is what binds and hold people together. Friendship creates an air of freshness for the one who is isolated, Friendship provides, Friendship builds some might break you, Friendship creates and destroys, No doubt about it your friends make you happy even when things feel blue they encourage you. Even the world database of happiness states that close friendships are happier.
According to C.S Lewis “Friendship is born at that moment when one person says to another: ’what! You too? I thought I was the only one” ……………….I remember making friends with someone like this 3 years ago, that day was really fun and we got to discuss about a lot. Still friends till this very moment.
The kind of friendship you build with your surrounding determines your level of happiness, building great friendship helps you love, you cannot love what your not friends with, remember “it’s not lack of love, but lack of friendship that makes unhappy bonds”
Although there are many forms of friendship, some of which may vary from person to person, place to place, certain characteristics are present in many types of friendship. Such characteristics include affection, sympathy, honesty, altruism, mutual understanding and compassion, trust, enjoyment of each other’s company, ability to be one self, express one’s feelings, and then of course there are times in which friends quarrel and its sometimes lead to breakups which helps make the friendship stronger when they make up…………I’ve had a lot of fights with my friends most of which involves silly insults but that doesn’t mean I don’t love them, after most of the quarrel everyone just forget about everything and then the jokes flow in and we just laugh about everything.
“When we honestly ask ourselves which person in our lives mean the most to us, we often find that it is those who, instead of giving advice, solutions, or cures, have chosen rather to share our pain and touch our wounds with a warm and tender hand. The friend who can be silent with us in a moment of despair or confusion, who can stay with us in an hour of grief and bereavement, who can tolerate not knowing, not curing, not healing and face with us the reality of our powerlessness, that is a friend who cares.”
Friendship end for many different reasons, sometimes friends move away from each other and are forced to move on due to the distance. Some may end by fading away or may end suddenly anyway the end on a friendship always depends on circumstances. Why some friendship go from always talking and having fun always to just nothing in an instance is a mystery to me, i see no reason why that happens at all........And most times that friendship which you hold most dearly, all you see is everything crumbling bit by bit and no matter how had you try to prevent it, it still happens..............................I hear you ask why? I guess thats how it was meant to be.
True friends..............................................
As long as the relationship lives in the heart, true friends will never part.
