I APPRECIATE YOU ALL FOR THE COMPLIMENT, I GOT ON MY PREVIOUS ARTICLE AND I THANK YOU GUYS FOR LIKING MY QUOTES.

While I thought about a topic to write about today, mind went to friendship.

_______

For a lot of people, friends are like family members and in some cases, friends have even become family members

Friendships are made with people who share the same common interests and or values as you. Friends that are always there for you when you need them most are very rare to come by.

Friendship is a very strong bond and a there is a lot of science behind it. Because the friends you keep have a lot of influence in your life. They influence you indirectly and even unconsciously.

In simple words "the friends you keep the determine the person you will become." There is also a popular saying that says "You are the sum of your five closest friends."

Who is in your circle? Are you in theirs?

It is easy to call or regard someone as your friend, but do the same person regard you as their friend too?

It is not easy to have or keep friends and the older you become; the less friends you might tend to have because you have become wiser and many people you once regard as friends might not fit to be called so. Some people even live their entire lives not really knowing their true friends.

Friends are the one of the most important things that people can rarely do without. Because they are there to inspire, motivate, and keep you heading in the right direction. Well that's the duty of every good friend. Having a good friend is important because it helps us become better persons and it allows us to have fun.

Good and true friendships are hard to come by but when they are found they should always be cherished and never taken for granted.

The word "friend" has now become a loose term to call someone you know, but friend or friendship is far different from that, you might be acquainted to someone doesn't necessarily mean they are your friend.

Perhaps the social media as made the word "friend" so common, especially Facebook, where you add or accept someone's request to become their friend (lol).

Although friendship is quite changing, as I have seen people become friends over the internet despite being separated by hundreds or a thousands of Miles.

But who are your real friends?

They are people you can call and talk to when you are feeling down or to celebrate your accomplishments and successes.

They are people who will always have your back, who will remind you of your purpose, and who will be there for you no matter what. The one thing you should never do is take those friends for granted.

Importance of friendship

In a world where crime, distrust, betrayal, and pain fill our hearts with hate. Friendship reminds us that we are not alone in this world. Friends give us hope that there is still good left in this world.

In conclusion

When you get your first job, when you get a promotion at work, when you get engaged, or when you buy your first home - don't forget to acknowledge those that have been with you through thick and thin - they're the reason why you're at this milestone!

Here is a lesson I have learnt from my past that you should always remember how you treat people in your life, good or bad is what makes the difference

So make sure you surround yourself with people who are positive, who love you for who you are, and who want the best for you. Such kind of friends are worth keeping not just for today but forever.

Be sure to let your family and friends know how much their support means

Message to my friends

I would like to thank all my friends who have been there with me during the ups and downs, your support and words of encouragement have kept me going.

Many people make mistakes when recognizing those that are their friends, just because you talk to someone everyday doesn't mean they are your friend, friendship goes deeper than that

Lately, I have been feeling down due to this friendship thing. Well, I have friends, but I feel so out of place right now whenever I try to reach out. Like I can't relate to them already. I don't know but it makes me feel sad.

Friendships can enrich your life in many ways. Good friends teach you about yourself and challenge you to be better. They encourage you do things you think it's unachievable

We just need to surround ourselves with positive friends who always want to best for us and fill us with their motivation to keep going.

There is a difference between a friend and an acquaintance. When we are surrounded with good friends whose aims are to inspire, educate, help us learn and support us, we should be grateful for life for bringing them to us and also, we need to reciprocate the same so others can call us the good friend we wanted to keep hearing from them.

True friendship is truly a gift to us. Let's cherish it.

I am very selective about having friends. In fact, I have very few "real friends". I have many acquaintances whom I treat with respect. Interesting, a way to reflect on the word "friend".

Friendships arise between people and can last as long as they want. But real friends are known in trouble. After all, a friend may seem like a person who is really just an acquaintance.

Friendship is a gift to those who have it. Alot of things are based upon selfish interests making real friendships gradually dissolving into a myth. True friends should never be let go of. Acquaintances are what I call most of the people I know.
