What is friendship? Friendship is extremely important for every person because everyone needs communication and understanding. A friend is one with whom you spend your free time, share your thoughts and interests, who keeps your secrets, whom you trust and who is always ready to help. We’ve got a lot of friends. Some of them are close, some are not, but all of them make our lives brighter and more interesting. In our view friendship is a gift from God. We can’t imagine our lives without friends. As a proverb says, “Life without a friend is like death without a witness”.

Best friends It’s not easy to make friends. It’s also very difficult to stay friends for years. You have to work at it. If you want to be a best friend you should think twice before you say or do something. You should mind your words and actions. You shouldn’t criticize anybody or be hypocritical even in thoughts.
