Friendship

Considerable individuals fail to recognize how important friends are in our life, even though most of us realize friends are the ones who care for you after family. In the following paragraphs, I will explain why friendship plays an essential role with several connections，and the core is that friends never leave our side, even in the worst circumstances.

  At first, I would like to reflect the novel that we read 2 weeks ago, “Life of Pi” because in my opinion, the friendship between Pi and Mr. Parker is one of the most suitable example to explain why we need friendship? Mr. Parker accompanied Pi during the whole suffering, and the main reason why Pi didn’t give up was that Mr. Parker and he were always there for each other, to enjoy the fresh fishes together in happy times, and to provide a shoulder to each other all the time. In fact, when they felt desperate, they served each other as one of the most valuable supports. Thus, eventually, they survived miraculously.

  Secondly, it is said that “whenever you need to hear the bitter truth about yourself, go to your best friends.” When I was in Grade 10, I got ill, and I had to be absent for school for almost a month. When I came back to school, everything became chaotic since I couldn’t understand the lessons without previous lessons as foundation. At that time, I felt frustrated, and I started to skip classes. After skip several classes, one of my best friends came to chat with me. “ How’s everything going?” she asked. “Nothing special, and I feel much better than before. See? I am energetic now.” I answered, and tried to conceal my inner anxiety. She sighed, and started to shout at me, “ I am talking about your physical condition, I am talking about here!” she pointed at her own head, “What’s wrong with you here! What are you thinking about? You have skipped too many classes, and you become too lazy to catch up. You want to be a loser? Fine, go ahead!” I stared at her, and silence followed. Fortunately, with the help from her, I got good marks on those courses. Then, I understood when you are staying with friends; words are not necessary because friends understand your silence.

  At last, “ Cory Monteith was found dead in a Vancouver, British Columbia, hotel room on Saturday, July 13” that was reported by CNN Student News. Countless people felt heart-struck for him, including his family, former colleagues, and fans. In fact, the fans did a lot to cherish the memory of Cory Monteith by writing articles, creating photo wall, and parades. Nothing is able to save Cory’s life back, but the reactions and care from the public really gave lots of comfort to Cory’s family, like a friend provided a timely help.

  All in all, friends feel happy for our success and concerned for our troubles, and they are willing to share all our feelings and make we feel that there is always someone who cares for us. When we have friendship, cherish it because we never ever feel lonely or helpless.
