love& friendship

"Three things of life those are most valuable -
Love, self-confidence & friends." -Unknown

It is the perfect combination of these three attributes that make your life a worthy experience. Life without love and friendship is no life at all. A true friend stays like a rock with you in all the ups and downs of your life and helps you to remain calm and composed in all difficult situations. Referring to this love, Sophocles says,

"One word frees us of all the weight and pain of life:
That word is love."
Love and friendship are synonymous terms and each complement with each other. There are various occasions all through the year which gives you a chance to express your love for your friends. No matter in which way we categorize our friends, like best friends or close friends or childhood friends, they will always be your friend.
However, it is really difficult to come across a real friend in life and if you come across someone like this never lose him/her as they are really rare. Cherish a friend for life because they come rarely in life. All your friends are unique and exceptional. We come across many people in our lives only some of them become our friend sometimes it encompasses a long wait to find a true friend. Friends are meant to stay forever. Thus, love and friendship is best summarized in the verse Love Friendship Quotes

"It is by chance we met . . .
