Friends are people you want to spend time with.
Friends are people that would help you in a time time of need.
Friends look for what they can bring into a relation, not what they could take out.
Friends are selfless and considerate.
Friends bring you ice cream after a break-up, and don’t call you when you’re sick.
They stop by personally to see if you are okay.
Friends are whole-hearted.
Friends have your best interest at heart.
Friends forgive your trespasses.
Friends are people that want to spend time with you.
Friends are friends to whatever end.

I have been blessed with having a lot of friends in my life, so I decided I wanted to talk a little about what I feel a friend truly is.
