True friendship is both challenging and exciting.  True friendship is the one, in which the individuals do not have to maintain formalities with each other.  It is perhaps the only relation that survives the trials and tribulations of time and remains unconditional.  True friendship is always loving, pure, honest and faithful, and will never endeavor to cause you any harm or pain.  The relationship is seen through the heart not through the eyes.  True friendship is able to survive the honest truth.  It is a way of relating to another human being.  True friendship is not about what you see on the outside of a person but what is in that person’s heart.

Friendships

friendships, like everything else in life, actually need work to make them stay alive, they need, love, input, sharing, caring, time, energy, all of those things go towards making a long and lasting friendship, perhaps its more a case of people too seldom putting the right ingredients into relationships these days, rather than the relationships not existing.  Friendships are so important, but the true ones come by extremely rarely, so anything that has to do with friendships compel me to try and explore the possibility of a good friendship with a newly met person.  “The better part of one’s life consists of his friendships.  “There is magic in the memory of schoolboy friendships; it softens the heart, and even affects the nervous system of those who have no heart.  “Friendships are fragile things, and require as much handling as any other fragile and precious things.  Contemporary life, with its tight schedules and crowded appointment books, however, has forced most friendships into something requiring a good deal of intentionally and pursuit just to keep them going.  Samuel Johnson “If a man does not make new acquaintances as he advances through life, he will soon find himself left alone; one should keep his friendships in constant repair”.
