What is friendship? Friendship is a state of human spirit.
People can’t live without friendship, they feel lonely and unhappy without it .Friendship makes wonders. I believe that everyone can be a friend, a child and an adult.
A true friend will never betray and will always help you, if you are in trouble. He never envies you. But we shouldn`t demand much from our friends, because nobody is perfect.
Real friendship is rare. Many people who have not got friends often buy cats, dogs, rabbits or hamsters. Pets are like true friends: faithful, understanding and besides they can listen to them attentively.
