Friendship, one of the most complex words in the world. It can take years to have a
real friend, but only minutes to lose them. I can relate this, I had many friends when I was
younger, we were a big group, and I thought it would be forever, but all those thoughts
were left few years ago. That year everything was equal, at least it seemed to. But one day,
just like magic, one of my friends came and told me they did not want me anymore in their
group, I had to stay away from them. Until today, I don´t know what happened, as a kid I
questioned myself many things, I didn´t know where the error was, I thought anything was
wrong, but anyway things happened. I never found the answer of why this occurred, and at
that point I had nobody. Here I realized the value of friendship and how lost you are when
anyone is next to you, telling you can do it! Everything is going to be okay! Or just give
you a hug and listen to you.
Friendship is something you can´t replace with anything, and for some reason, we
need it in our lives, is not our decision. We feel empty when we do not have social
interaction. Friends keep us mentally and physically strong, Harvard studies tell us that
having solid friendships in our life even helps promote brain health. They also help us to
have a personal growth, sharing many cultures, accepting others just like they are, not to
put limits because of certain characteristics, all this change our way of thinking, we learn
new things and start to understand how the world function. Another reason of the
importance of friends is that we are always going to have a listener, someone who is there
when we need it, that advise us, gives us a hug and take us out from the sea and save us
from drowning in our problems, all this and many more reasons exist for friendship to
being necessary in our life, something that can´t get out of us, is our nature.
So, if you have a real friendship, someone who is there for you always, don´t let her
or him go, keep them and appreciate them, because many times is all you have. Always
remember friendship is not a thing of one person only, you can´t just expect others to give
everything what you need while you don´t give anything to other. They give you their
support but you have to give them your support also, because friendship is based on trust,
and if they can´t trust you they will never be your friends, not real friends. Just when you
learn the balance between giving and receiving help is when you can have a real friendship.
Someone that is always going to be there for you and someone for who you re going to be
always there, because when real friend ship exists is like a sisters or brothers relationship, it
never ends.
