How can you receive that title? Do you earn it? Automaticly assume it? What do you do as a friend? Is theie a manual or book on it? Do we have it engraved on our DNA? What do you think.... friend?

I think the best friends in life are the ones that you can trust. Without a doubt you know they'll be there if you need them. Unfortunately most people in my life are not this way. That is why I just have a few friends but I really treasure the good ones and don't waste a lot of time on the not so good ones. Quality is definately better than quantity when it comes to friendships. To be a good friend you have to work at it. Anything in life worth having takes work. If a person isn't willing to put work into being friends with me then that is their loss and I will find somebody who does wanna work at it.

Being a friend is being a brother or sister. God created us differently into this world and separated us into different families. But He expects us to come together as a family of friends. To meet this expectation and become as brothers and sisters, we must embibe the culture of loving one another irrespective of the tribe, race, level of education, financial level and religion etc. Being a friend is not a title neither does one earn it. The opposite of friendship is enmity. So, one would not expect to be an enemy or have enemies in this world. So, automatically, you are a friend to some one or people and they too your friends. So, being a friend is automatic. It is instituted and odained by God. We are all friends in this world - whereever you may find yourself.
