What is true friendship?

Someone who follows you when you turn and walk away.

Someone who guides you and cheers you on when you lose your way. Someone who holds your hand and tells you that everything gonna be okay when you feel frustrated.

Someone who makes you believe that there are good things in the world. Someone is friend.

Nowadays, the word friendship has been used so frequently that it has

lost its meaning. Some jokingly or seriously put it that friends are made to be taken advantage of, which makes me very sad. True friendship doesn’t mean that when you need your friends’ help, you will treat him to dinner; when you have to protect yourself, you will put your friends in a difficult situation;when you have to ask for something, you have to make a deal with him.

On the contrary, true friendship is the communication of the hearts and understanding of the souls.True friendship is like water, which is tasteless but is essential to our body. Compared with decent wine, water is insipid in taste, but is of great help to satisfy our thirsty. True friends don’t need to be with each other everyday, but are connected in heart every minute whatever the distance is.

True friendship is like medicine, though tasted bitter, killing your illness. True friendship has nothing to do with fame, power, or possessions. They care not what you are, but who you are. You’re not his stepping-stone to success, but are his crutch to live through difficulties. When you are

happy, you are likely to forget him, but when you are in trouble, he is the first one you will turn to for help. Just like the old saying: “a friend in need is a friend indeed.”

True friends stay in your heart, rather than at your side; they know you more than yourself, and try to better you; they care you as much as

themselves, but never let you know. When staying with our friends, we can release ourselves completely. We can do whatever we want, we can laugh together, talk together, and even cry together. They cherish you, for they know without you they are struggling alone in the desert. On your side, you will feel the same.

True friends are hard to find, difficult to leave, and impossible to forget. Once you have found such a true friend, do treasure him.

True friendship is a kind of treasure in our lives. It is actually like a bottle of wine, the longer it is kept, the sweeter it will be.Let’s pray the flower of friendship would always bloom brightly in our hearts.
