We enjoy the life with true friends
There is no alternative of true friends. They not only stand with us in every situation but they provide us their best support as well, without any thing in return. Our true friends are not demanding but supportive. Yes, I am happy that we can choose our friends unlike the relatives. I am so proud to have some real good friends who would come to support me at two in the night without asking a question. Yes, I am proud to have friends with whom I can share some of my secrets. We are open to each other in every situation and never ask a question.

Let me describe the friendship from a new angle. A friend is some one who can fight with me without having a real reason and would carry it on unless the problem is resolved forever. This may look the end of the road to onlookers but that is not so. The doors of hearts are always open and entry always allowed to real friends, come what may. Let me share a secret with you some of my friends would continue fighting with me until the reason of fight is clear. Moreover, once the reason is clear, the fight too is over.

I know women are better friends because they seldom fight and they have better ability to keep secrets compared to men. Men may look fighting with their friends but that is never permanent. They may go to have a cup of tea or go for a movie immediately after a fight. Please keep in mind that I am discussing about our true friends only. These stories of true friendships are long and can keep on going forever but to cut the long story short, the true friends are like uncut diamonds that are forever.

Why is friendship so important?
We need them at every point of life and more so while we feel disappointed with some of the problems that we face and no one but only our true friends come forward to solve them. There are certain problems, which we can discuss with our friends only. Friends can solve some of the problems in a better way compared to relatives.

Friends keep your stresses away
There are times when we cannot share some of our problems with our closest of relative including husband or wives but we can easily share them with friends. They definitely come forward to find a better solution in most of the cases. They are always with us in every problem without ever mentioning the trouble they took sorting them out. They are never demanding. They never expected any thing in return; they never expected any gifts for the help they rendered so selflessly. They never expected us to show them our gratitude for whatever they did for us. The real friends do their job and forget it immediately.

There are a few tips:
1- Never forget their birthday, marriage anniversaries.
2- Keep in contact, however busy you are.
3- Throw a party once in a while
4- Try to attend parties your friends have organized. In case you cannot attend a party let, them know your reason and acknowledge it.
5- Never forget to share the problems of your friends as they did for you.
