Once I met a difficult question to answer-what is a friend?But now,I think I have a better understanding about friends and friendships.

What is a friend?To me,it is a present I give to myself.There is an English saying"A friend in need is a friend indeed."A friend will probably love us even when we forget to love ourselves.We also know true friends are hard to find and difficult to forget.Some are like the sunshine that lightens our day,and they are always around us,ready to give us a hand.Some are like the stars at night,and we don't always see them,but we know they are always there,waiting for us.

Friendship doubles our joys and cuts down our sorrows.The first rule of friendship is to be a friend,to be open,natural and honest;the second rule is to take time to keep your friendship.So,why not take some time to go to our friends and share ourselves with them?

Please believe:Friends are forever,and friendships never end.
