Why is true frindship such an importance in life? The answer is quite simple, we all need that one person we feel like we can run to. Sometimes we call our husbands, wives, mothers, fathers or our best friends. That’s great, however we need someone outside of that. Someone who is always there for us when we need a break from life and reality. The importance of this is that we have the support we need.

It is good for our emotional and physical health. If you are not feeling well emotionally, you most likely will not be feeling well physically. We as human beings have the need to feel wanted and needed. The extent that a true friend can help you is truly amazing. To be there not only when you need someone to talk to but also when you need other types of help. How about the time you were thinking about dropping out of school and your friend was there to convince you that it was not a good idea. Or maybe the time when you had a few too many drinks and your friend walked you home or found you a safe ride.

Having a network of friends or even just one that you can call true is very important to a healthy lifestyle. People tend to be happier and overall healthier. When we have that we can see the bigger picture of life. Someone to tell us that we can do whatever we set our minds to and someone who truly believes in us. They accept us for who we are and nothing less. Friends make us laugh when we want to cry. They are there when we do cry to provide a shoulder and loving arms to hug. When we need someone to bail us out of any situation, friends are there. To laugh, to cry, to share, to hold and to cherish, true friends are always there.

Friends have proven their importance throughout all of life. We can look back and remember all the good and bad times that we cherish so closely to our hearts. When we look at life like a book we can realize that friends are the foundation of everything. In all reality we can say that friends are one of the most important things in our lives. Friendship affects our lives so greatly and changes everything.
