Hello binny!(",)
Definitely, friends are very important. Friends are your support system. When you can depend on friends, you feel safe and cared for.Friends offer acceptance and emotional support.They also are there to offer advice, an ear to listen, or a shoulder to cry on. Friendships help us feel connected and less isolated.
Friends also help us reduce stress. Not only do they listen to us when we need to vent, but they also provide much needed diversion from what is stressing us. Participating in shared interests and activities with friends helps us forget about problems at work or at home. For a brief time, we can lose ourselves in a pleasant activity and perhaps laugh and breathe easier.
You see, having friends to surround you make this world a better place to live.
Great day!(",)

I do think friends are important in our lives. They are people that have common interest with you and if they are true blue friends can help you over the humps of life. But has been pointed out in some of the articles I have read if a person has one true blue friend in their life they have been blessed. Most friends are not willing to go that extra mile to help a friend out. I have one true blue friend and she has been there for me through thick and thin. Through the bad times and good times and I have helped her out also in those ways. I am blessed to have found her many years ago. The other friends that I have are in word only not in action. What you say is true that friends make a good life for us but true blue friends make our lives not just good but better.

I think its important to have friends around, I love having friends. My friends and I share many things in common and also compliment each others differences. Friends are great to have around to cry and laugh with, a good friend is pretty flexible, lol. I have one friend since we have been kids and I would never miss an opportunity to laugh together, she knows more about me than anyone, including family, lol.

Having friends are important and a friend can be a relative or anybody, somebody you feel comfortable enough to talk to about certain things you can't talk about with a stranger. they help us at times when we don't know where to turn or when you just need someone else's opinion about something. a friend will tell you the truth.
