Friendships 

Man does not live by bread alone. His relationship with others in the 

family and society give him an identity and provide a psychological 

satisfaction. Among all other ties, friendship brings immense joy in 

our life. If we are lucky to have a noble friend, he will save us from 

all our depressions. The magic of mutual love will bring boundless 

joy as love knows no weariness. 

 

There are hundreds of stories in the world classics which tell us 

many immortal comradeships. David-Jonathan, etc. are some rare 

examples. How does this miracle happen between two strangers and 

bind them in the knot of love? There is something in each that 

strikes a spontaneous appreciation. Friends always find something 

fresh to admire and appreciate in each other. We should be grateful 

for friendships. It involves sacrifice of time and thoughts. It is a 

lovely thing to be perfectly loyal to a friend. 

 

We should try to keep the friends we have. Strive to help them. 

Never find fault or speak ill of them. Take interest in their life and 

shower love unconditionally on them. Don't hurt your dear ones 

even in your disturbed moments. Remember the words of 

Shakespeare. 

 

'But if the while I think on the dear friend,-All Losses are restored 

and sorrow end.
