Friendship is the cornerstone of any relationship. It either forms the foundation of a relationship or it strengthens the foundation of a relationship.
Very often friendship forms a precursor to a lifelong bond. Friendship is that what precedes love, it strengthens the bonds between a parent and their child, helping both connect to each other, and at times, if you don't like the unnecessary attention of someone, it is the zone which you can keep them in.
Man, and yes woman, may socialise, but that may not necessarily lead to a friendship. That leads to connection but not necessarily friendship. Friends on social media is not the same as having the physical presence of a friend.
A friend is someone who will stand you through thick and thin. That's why they say that you know who your true friends are when you fall on bad times. They will be there for you, the time and place doesn't matter. You need them and they will be there for you.
Friends are the ones who accept you for who you are. It doesn't matter what your preferences are, what your leaning are, whether your straight or gay. They love you for who you are, and their love is pure. Your religious beliefs doesn't matter to them.
They overlook your shortcomings to see the good in you. They may not judge you, but will tell a spade is spade, will not sugar coat facts or mince words. They will stand by you, your support when you need them. When you need them the most they will be there for you, advising you, being that patient ear that you need when you have to have a heart-to-heart.
They know you for who you are and can see through you fears, what you try to hide away from others, the lies you tell others. They know you through and through. Nothing is hidden from them. They are your sanctuary in the stormy seas, your anchor, who's company makes you feel safe and secure. Their hugs are the warmth you crave that brings about a calming effect on you.
They know you, your every nuances. They know what they need to do calm you down. They share your secrets and fears, often making you strong.
No wonder friendship is a bond that forms a basis for so many other. Our blessings and something we will always be grateful for and cherish.
In good times
And in bad times
I will be at your side
Forever more
'Cause that's what friends are for
