Ever since I was very young, I started to understand friendship and benified from it and enjoyed it.Just like a friend said,"No friend, no history", friendship did make and is still making part of my history,if not all. Its friendship thatlet me learn about prople around me,the outer world,myself as well.Its my friends who inspirit me to keep pursuing better life.its the contact with my friend enlightens my life whenever i feel blue.Friendship makes my life easier and brighter.it help me build my self-confidence and self-respect.What's your opinon on friendship?

Mother, father, brother, sister, cousins, aunts, uncles, grandparents, neighbors, pets, and every living creature who is breathing made by God can be considered as a friend. God created wonderful creatures in order for us to appreciate life.
As the saying goes "no man is an island." Friendship is very important because I consider it as the extension of oneself because through it your are showing your strength and weakness, you can share you laughter and sorrows, you can share your hopes and frustrations, you can share your past, present, and future. Friendship is one of the basic unit that interlinks every human being in the whole wide world. Friendship is a gift from God that will help you carry on and move on. Friendship is the rainbow after the rain. Friendship is the wind beneath your wings. Friendship is the most beautiful shoes that will bring you to every beautiful places. Friendship is the torch that will light your dark path. Friendship is the music in your soul. Friendship is the best thing ever created by God empowered by human being. Friendship is the first step towards peace, love, unity, and harmony on Earth because it bridges the difference of every individual. It does not care about your personality, your status in life, your religion, and every differences that an individual have.
Imagine life without without friendship. It is like living a life without colors. It is like a wild jungle full of beast. Imagine life without air, water, fire, earth, and wind. That will be the life without friendship.

Having many friends can make our life easier since we have a friends who can comfort, listen to our problems and happiness, give advice, and someone who can help us make a solution when our family isn't there for us.. Our friends are the second family that we have.. If our family isn't there for us then we can count from our friend but of course our family is the best and important part of our life.. Well, I'm happy every time I'm with my friends.. They make my day brighter and happy since they always makes me laugh, they always cheer me up especially when I feel sad.. When I'm with my friends it seems that there problems and difficulties does not exist because being with my friends I'm always feel happy.. The best thing that happen to me in College is to meet those people who became my friends.. ![](/Content/images/emotes/lol.gif)

of course it is... we are created by God as social beings and i believe that we can't live by ourselves in this world... we always need people around us to associate and interact with one another... so friendship is very important for me... without friends, my live will be very dull and boring... and i won't be able to survive as well... that's why there is a saying that says no man is an island and i believe totally in that... take care and have a nice day...

Hi, friend. Of course, friendship is important to me. I learn much from my friends about almost everything, life and work. We share our joys and sorrows, give our support to one another. I can't imagine life without friends, you can pour out your heart to nobody and can trust nobody.

Friendship is important. Really important. We are social beings and we do need friends to grow emotionally and financially. But always choose friends carefully. Most of them will just try to use you. But true friends will always be there beside you when you need them.

hello challengewealth,
Friendship for me is very important. I don't only treasure it,but also value it as well. My friends are my second family for without them life is boring. In times of need, they're there to comfort and help me without expecting anything in return. In times of laughter, something to celebrate, they're always there without fail. Makes my life more colorful, meaningful and with direction.

For me, friendship is very important. To some extent, it is a necessary part of out life. Without it, life will turn to be very dull. If you come across a trouble, of course, you can go to your friends for help. And they will help you as possible as they can. It is more important than wealth. Just as the saying goes, you can not buy friendship, though you can buy many things in the world. So, I always try my best the cherish the friendship around me. Mutual respect and help is very very necessary to enhance your friendship.

for me friendship is bond that remain forever, a bond that ties you together and makes you strong. in time of trouble, where do you go? to your friend of course, in times of loneliness where to go? and who do you tell your secrets? still your friends. we can't live without a friend beside you. being with your friends makes you happy, makes you laugh and cry, however there are times that you misunderstood each other. but still you love your friends. friendship rules. :)

I am just learning the importance of friends. When growing up I have little to no friends and it was tough. This year my best friend and significant other saved my life and without him I would not be here. So yes friends are important, and a friend can be human or animal. I feel my cat is also my friend, she doesnt complain, she give me unconditional love, and is always there when I need someone to talk to.

Oh yea i totally love my friends. I like it when friends stop over at my house more than others, it's not like i'm popular but it's because they have a good friendship with me and love to hang out. Plus i think it's in my nature because i am a libra and it's in my hororscope or some crap like that. Yea friendship is ideal in every person i believe.

A true and real friend is a treasure you can't just find around the corner. And if you find just one, or even a few, true friends in your life then you can count yourself lucky. A fake friend is lets say: someone who'll spend time with you if they have nothing better to do, someone who doesn't really care about you, someone who might pretend but doesn't really care what you have to say, someone if you get into a disagreement, or argument, with they won't forgive you and may stay mad at you for years until they feel it's convenient for them to make up with you not even considering how much pain they caused you, a very selfish type person and the list can go on and on. With fake friends like that who needs friends.

I think friendship is the most important thing in life. Friends are the people you spend your time with. If its your best friend, a group of friends, or a girlfriend/boyfriend. Without them I couldnt see myself having fun and everything would seem so pointless. I know that when i am happiest is when i am with my girlfriend and that i have such a good time with my good friends. You learn the most from your friends, if they are good friends and they are very important in making you the person that you are. I think that choosing good friends is very important aswell. because the people you spend your time with affects who you are and you tend to act like them. But if you choose good friends they will not pressure you to do something and you can be yourself.
