Friendship is the only cement that will ever hold world together
~Woodrow Wilson
Friendship is a relationship of mutual affection between people friendship for most people it is a combination of affection, loyalty, love, respect and trust.
Friendship is a stronger bond between two or more people who get along with each other, that is there is a comfort level between them as they know each other well.
According to me friendship in ONE WORD IS TRUST. TRUST is the backbone of any/every relationship. Friendship is a simple word but carries a deep meaning it cannot be described or defined by a paragraph, word or phrase. According to me friendship means being there for each other not only sharing joy but also there during sorrows. Friendship is only one of the most precious gift of life which are found at every stage of life.
Recent Study at Harvard, concluded that having friends in our life even helps promote brain health, friends also help us handle stress, make better choices and allow us to rebound from health issues more quickly. Friendship has its own pros and cons as every other relationships.
Pros of friendship
1. Argument can be easily solved.
2. We can have someone who care about us.
3. We can come out of any bad mood or can be distracted or you can have a change.
Cons of friendship
1. Have a good friend means it limits our other friendship opportunities as you may close yourself by thinking “I am happy with who I have, I don’t need others.
2. We may forget how to talk less, talking less is a skill. if the other person is good friend of yours you may not know and speaks whatever we want for hours and hours and this may get habituated. 3. We may have chances to argue a lot for no reason for example, you message her/him saying good morning and they will also wish you, this continuous forever and suddenly when ether of them in the bad mood, they start saying that always I message and you never start the conversation and this triggers the fight.
After sometime when we are in the middle of the fight because we were with same person for long time we get vexed.
So why the pros and cons of good friend and take decision carefully when you think to have a good friend. So, as I have written in the starting friendship cannot be described in a paragraph a good friendship is very difficult to come across that is why we should appreciate this divine relationship that is based upon understanding, trust and feelings..
A true friend is one of the most precious possessions that one can have in his or her life. Even though some friendships could make us feel bitter, it may put others down. Don’t let anything effect you even though it does, it is a learning. So, just take the decisions wisely and choose correctly because there is no rule that you need to be good for everyone and friend for everyone.
