"A friend in need is a friend indeed" is an age old saying.If you have friends by your side you can tackle any problem,though some problems by some cunning and crooked methods. There was chemistry practicals in school today where we had to do salt analysis.But while doing the experiment my test tube broke when it hit the edge of a bottle.I knew instantly that I was in a big trouble.I was going to tell the teacher when suddenly my friend who was watching everything offered me a test tube.I was totally surprised because I had thought that all had just one test tube.But he told that he had smuggled the extra one, right from under the teacher's nose.He said that he had taken it from the test tube box ,when the teacher wasn't looking there,for using in case of an emergency.I was very touched to see that he had taken all those risks to save me from the hell lot of troubles that would have appeared if I wouldn't have got the test tube in time. This shows that if you have friends by your side you can solve any problem that comes in front of you.So make friends and enjoy your life to the fullest!!!!

It is unreal sometimes just how much friends can do for you when you're feeling down. My friends have always been there for me in the past when I've needed them, and I just hope that they know that I am always going to be there for them as well if they need me. Friends are brilliant, because they won't judge you in the same kind of way that your family will, and they certainly don't take offence at some things that you might get judged for if you were to say the same things to your family. I love my friends, and hope that they are going to be there for me for a long time.

You are absolutely right.We come to know the value of our friends in tough situations only.We may enjoy our time with friends but that time may go unnoticed by us,but if they help us in times of trouble,we remember their deeds for a long time.And I am glad that you too have, friends who stand by you all the time because there may be some fair-weathered ones too who just make us of us and then leave us as soon as we are in trouble.Hope that no one gets such friends.

Thanks for your response Janie.I totally agree with you-we all need friends.It is impossible to survive on this planet without friends.And such kind of small small incidents really teach you the importance of friends.There may be things that we can't share with our family but can freely share with our friends.Without them life is like a pizza without any toppings!
