friends are those who are there for us come rain or shine . they do not judge,they do not rule, they listen and reach out to us . the best thing about them is that they accept us ,tolerate us and respect us for who we are,no matter what we are or where we come from . 

in a world where hate and bigotry have darkened livelihoods,robbed spirits and destroyed families , friends are there to make lives more significant. they tell us they love us when others have left us, they care for us and nurture us when others neglect us . when we kicked in the face and down on our knees , friends reach out their hands to us and help us back on our feet . 

i can never imagine life without friend . how dark it would be , now insipid it could be . the saddest thing about life without friends is loneliness sneaks in and takes upon itself as our soul companion . it brings with it and heinous feelings of dejection,self-deprecation and desolation .

in due time , the bogus pal shuns our heart from being discerning of people and in the end , we attract bad and manipulative company to step in and took over our lives . they control us,hurt us and they break our hearts . while some of us manage to struggle through, many of us may drown in it's sorrows . however , for the lucky ones , real friends emerge and they embraced and protect from the evil ones who inflict pain upon us . can you imagine life without friends ?

or our whole life only to be sorrowed with superficiality ?

some of them leave us and live their own lives as we grow apart , but as friends, we will never ever fall apart . those who live among us will be wit us and look after us , some become families and others bloom to be our soul mates . for those who are not with us , they will remain in our hearts and keep us in their thoughts . for when the times calls and when we need , rest assured that they will be there for us to stand by us as they can .

let us count our blessings and remember the friends that we have by loving them unconditionally and gratiying their companionship through kindness and compassion . although we may lost them through acts of nature and unforeseen circumstances , we keep them in our hearts and never ever lose them from our thoughts .

we are defined by the people we love and for the reasons for loving them . so let us our friends for being there in our darkness moments and above all , for making our lives worth living for .
