The Special Bond of Friendship Makes Our Life Worthwhile

Leave a comment

Today, I am going to talk about friendship and the importance of it in our life. Friendship is an affectionate and strong bond which develops between people. I have many friends in my school and neighbourhood Ira, Lucy, John, Henry, Samuel, Sylvia, Maria and many more. It is indeed a very special gift of our life. We play together and enjoy ourselves. I consider myself fortunate enough to get so many good friends in my life. We experience many sweet and pleasing things together. Our teacher says that we should love everyone and should be friendly and affectionate towards all. Daddy says that true friends are an asset which one can cherish throughout the life.

A friendship develops through love and care. Daddy says that a true friend stands beside us in our good and bad times. True friendship should not be limited by demarcations of caste, creed or race. A friend can read our mind and can appreciate us without any pretensions or exaggeration. My mother is also my friend as she can understand everything whatever goes in my mind and always loves and cares for me. She always stands beside on bad and good times and encourages me towards success and betterment.

It is not necessary that friendship should always happen with the people of the same age group and background it can happen with people of any age group and background if they share some mutual affection, trust, care, and interpersonal association.

We being a social animal, cannot live in isolation. We need somebody to share our happiness and sorrows with. Friends not only support and accompany us but they are very much necessary for our emotional and social development. The support of a friend increases our self-confidence and helps us face the world with a zeal.

We need friends at every stage of our life. Getting good friends is life is indeed a blessing.  Friends share our grief and multiply our joy.  We spend most of our time with friends in various fields. True friends form a great pillar of support and strength in our life. They help us to stand erect in life by being with us in every situation. Mamma says a true friendship never diminishes no matter how often the friends meet but they always feel and care for one another in their good and bad days. It is an everlasting bond of mutual affection and understanding.

Eating more vegetables replacing oily and junk food helps in weight management. Vegetables provide a rich source of nutrients to our body. In our home, mamma makes sure that we all eat vegetables regularly to build a strong immunity and protect ourselves from various diseases.
