On Friendship
As the saying goes, "A friend in need is a friend indeed. " Friendship does not depend on how many friends you have, but on how much sincerity your friends can offer. Most of the people we share social associations with are, as a matter of fact, merely acquaintances. True friendship invplves mutual understanding and mutual support, both in moments of success and on occasions of failure. A true friend is one who not only shares your happiness, but your sorrow and responsibilities as well.
True friendship is always established on mutual devotion, just as love is. Only in this way can you find that your friends will never let you down, and that your friendship can last forever.
