You know, there are different types of
friendship. We can have close friends, pen-friends or just
acquaintances. Life-long friendship is a rare kind of friendship and a lot of
people even doubt that it exists in real life.I
believe that life-long friendship exists not only in books and films. For
example, my grandfather Oleg has a friend - Peter, whom he has known from his
childhood. They are
devoted to each other and they have much in common. My grandfather and Peter
understand and support
one another. Besides, they have similar tastes, interests and life
philosophies. Grandfather often says that when they were young, his friend used
to help him in times of need or crisis. They have always trusted each other and
they have never quarreled.
Unfortunately, there are a
lot of people who have no close friends. Some reserved and shy people find making friends rather
difficult. What is more, it is really not easy to find a person with whom you
can share strong interpersonal ties. Those people who have not found best
friends are sometimes sure that real friendship exists only in books and films.
But they shouldn't despair because they may find close friends in the
future.In
conclusion, I'd like to add that it is very difficult to live without friends.
Your friend – is your helper, adviser and supporter. He gives you a sense of
being protected, emotional comfort and moral support. As the proverb says: "A true
friend is the best possession".
