What friend are for?

Some of the benefits of friendship are well-known; some, however, are concealed within the workings of the system in the world.
We all know that there is a deep need for companionship. Not for nothing is solitary confinement considered to be among the harshest of punishments.
But today, there is any sincere friendship in this world?
I can't deny it. Yes, it is but, how much? 10%? 15% maybe.....

But since the human personality is such that we are all influenced with a natural desire for friendship, why should it be necessary for us to be instructed to make friends. Isn't it a little like telling people not to forget to eat? What wisdom should we use.
Authenticity, friendship is sharing, caring, responsibility and respect to each other. Please do not mention, all these feelings comes when we get married. Bullshit! How come we get married if we do not share or caring at first? Unless it is family arrangement, Yes, it can be an excuse.

On the simplest level, we are being taught that it is not enough to have friends, one must choose for himself the right kind of friend---"a good friend." But the more friends the better. Why? Because, in a sense, there is safety in numbers. By that I do not mean that if somebody tries to jump you in the street, you can call on your friends for help. We are talking about friends here, not a gang (",). I love to have my latest friends today. We always keep in touch to each other. We do gather once or twice a month. We sharing and concern waht happen to all of us. And of course gossip, is major factor for us but we're sharing among us. And all gossip is based on facts! So, it can be clasify as discussion. Hehe... This is we called friend. But for others, they like to be a unpaid reporter and spread all stories to unless people. They got nothing to do I guess.

But, I do have various type of friends. Good friend, best friend, sucks friend, fucking friend, actors/actresses friend,backstabber friend and etc. You might think, why I need all those friends? For me, I am a human. Do you?!

And I never thought I'd feel this way
And as far as I'm concerned
I'm glad I got the chance to say
That I do believe I love you

And if I should ever go away
Well then close your eyes and try
To feel the way we do today
And then if you can remember

Keep smiling, keep shining
Knowing you can always count on me, for sure
That's what friends are for
For good times and bad times
I'll be on your side forever more
That's what friends are for

Well you came in loving me
And now there's so much more I see
And so by the way I thank you

Oh and then for the times when we're apart
Well then close your eyes and know
The words are coming from my heart
And then if you can remember
