Friendship is All About...

Friendship is all about trust and care
For each other to be there
Without a friend you will be lonely and horrible
Sometimes it is so adorable
Just the way two friends support each other
Always remember you can rely on your mother
There must be no secrets between you
Otherwise your friendship is not true
And you have no clue what friendship is all about

That’s Why We Need Friends

We need friends for many reasons, all throughout the four seasons.

We need friends to comfort us when we are sad,
and to have fun with us when we are glad.

We need friends to give us good advice.
We need someone we can count on to treat us nice.

We need friends because we are social in nature,
and having friends makes us feel secure.

We need friends to remember us once we have passed
sharing memories that will always last.

That’s why I need YOU!

Inspiring Story - Friendship Has No Fear

A soldier approached his officer; seeking his permission to fetch his friend, not yet back from the battlefield. The officer refused permission stating that his friend would be probably dead. There was no point in going out and losing his life, too, the officer said.

Unmindful of the consequence, the soldier went and an hour later returned, mortally wounded, carrying his dead friend.

The officer was furious; “Ï told you he was dead. Now I’ve lost both of you. Tell me, was it worth going out there to bring in a corpse”

The dying man replied, “Öh, it was sir. When I got to him he was still alive. And he said to me, ‘Jack, I was sure you would come.”

Friendship has no fear. It expresses itself in sacrifice. Humanity survives purely because of love for each other.
