What would life be without friends really. Friends are part of our existence in this world and if we do not have friends then i don't even know how we would live on this earth. Friends are the reason why we laugh, we enjoy the God given life that we have. when we make friends, be it at home in the neighborhoods, schools, the work place in church, wherever you are, this are the people who will keep you accountable in your life, this are the same people who will correct you when you are wrong, praise or applaud you when you do something right/ good. we all know how affirmations are important in our lives, they either break or make us better people in our lives, they are very necessary in our daily lives. when in most cases we may get into trouble, who are the people who come to your rescue most of the time, and don't get me wrong, i am not being biased to our families, but the truth is friends are the one's who always come forth and help us whenever we need help, they are always ready and willing to lend a helping hand before the family members jump in. And the truth is they will always stay by your side to the end. Although we also need to be very careful with the friends we welcome into our lives because, there are those who are genuine and those who are fake friends who are only there with you when things are going well, but when things are bad they scatter be very weary of such people.
