Friendship is very important in our lives. It is important because it helps us become more social with other people and friends protect each other. For example Lennie wouldn't be able to live if George wasn't his friend. Also friendship gives people joy that wouldn't usually be present. If Lennie didn't have George he wouldn't have a friend to be next to him and to make him happy. friendship gives a connection between humans that almost nothing can beat, and connected to other humans is a good skill to have. So, friendship is a very important in our lives and without it humans would be very different.

Friendship is really important because it helps us learn how to get along with people ad deal with situations in life. Friendship teaches us how to trust and keep promises and lear to always help someone who needs the help. friendship also teaches us to forgive people and not to hold grudges on people. so friendship plays a huge part in how we are when we are older.

As a society, we cannot survive without friendship. It is a key factor in teaching social skills from a young age and allows us to be ourselves around others. Friendship also provides the feeling of being happy and content with our lives. Of course, other things can bring us happiness, but friendship is such a big component in any person's life. Contrarily, friendship teaches us about loss and hurt. Like when you fight with a best friend and you realize how much you really depend on each other. It is such an important thing that many have in life, but don't realize it's there until it's gone.

Friendship binds people together in a way nothing else can. Without friendship, no one would know how to communicate. Also, sharing ideas is an easy process with friendship and it can lead to brighter, more intelligent ones. If we didn’t have friends, there would be no one to lean on in a tough situation, and no one to tell when something great happens. A great example of friendship is Spongebob and Patrick. Whenever something happens to one of them, they immediately go and tell the other one. They are both inseparable and loyal to one another than they are to each other. In conclusion, everyone should experience friendship, for it is what keeps our society going.

I think friendship is important. I think friendship is important because it teaches us to trust. It also shows us that we are not alone, and have someone to rely on. An example is when we are sad and most times people turn to their friends to make them happy by comforting them. Sometimes people take freindship for granted, and then eventually come to a realization that they wouldnt be the person they are today without their friends, i know i wouldnt be the same if i didnt have my friends. Lastly, friendship helps us with our communication skills and social interaction, we learn from each other. This is why friendship is important and what it does for us today.

How is friendship important? Friendship is important in many ways like support, communication, and happiness. Friends aren't just there to tell them secrets or to gossip with they are there for your support. Say you didn't do as well on the test as you thought you did. They are there to cheer you up and make you feel better. They are also there to communicate with you. Communication is a very important tool for the human brain. It allows you to think about what you want to say and then to say it. Above them all where would we be if we weren't happy. Most and just about everyone needs that one person that is always there is make them smile no matter what mood you are in at the time. If we didn't have that one friend most of us would be lost and sad. No emotion. No cheerfulness, to make there day better. So, Friendship is very important in our live.We all need that one friend to finish the race. Even if we didn't come in first at least we know that we had a friend encouraging us along the way.

Friendship is very important in our lives. Without friendship a person can feel excluded and alone inside. Friendship can bring a person so much relief and happiness because you would always have someone to talk or communicate with. When something amazing or something completely awful happens, you can always count on your friends to help you get through it or celebrate at your side. In my opinion the best kind of friendship is with one of your siblings. If you ever get into fights, you will always know you will make up and everything will be back as they where. Also, these are the type friendships that are guaranteed to last forever.

Friendship is important in a persons life for so many reasons. Having friends is almost like having extended family. Friendship can add support for people with disabilities and friendships can provide someone to talk to in tough situations. Lennie and George are practically brothers and George watches out for Lennie. If George wasn't, Lennie would have a very hard time with everyday life. providing that other person who is able to possibly relate to the situation one person is having.This person can also give there point of view on the situation and that can help someone get through the tough times. Friends are not just people that share the same likes and dislikes as the other. These people are like family and they would fight for their friends. They just want the best for their friends. Friends are very important and no one can have to many friends.

Friendship is important in our lives because it helps us gain trust and we learn a lot from our friends and peers. Friendships give us company and lets us know we always have someone there to count on and to be there for us. Everyone in the world would be really lonely and bored if friends didn't exist. Friends help us learn to trust and rely on others for help and guidance during happy and hard times. They are always there for you no matter what happens and they can always make you happier. Friends are very important in peoples lives and can make someone feel less lonely and feel more happy.

Friendship is a key part of life. As seen in "Of Mice and Men" Crooks says "I tell ya a guy gets too lonely an' he gets sick." This means that without friends, you would be prone to succumb to madness. Ain't nobody want that! If you did not have friends, say, at work, work would become much harder. It also pays to have friends with connections to certain political leaders. This way, you can get money much more easily and have more power in the social ladder.

Friendship is vital to the well being of human beings. Without a friend no one has anyone to talk to or go to for advice. Without a friend, no one would be able to have the great experience of friendship. If someone doesn't have a friend, then they will never be able to have fun with anyone but their family. Also, without a friend that certain someone would not be able to meet anyone new. Finally, and maybe most importantly, without a friend, a certain someone would be very, very, lonely.

Friendship is important in our lives because friends support you through out everything and they can help us feel better and understand more. When you are upset about something who do you go to and tell? Your friends. They make you feel better and sometimes help you understand the issue that you are upset about. Friends will always support you and your decisions. Overall friends are supportive and always there for you. Friendship is important because without friends some people would have no support system during school and no one to go to when they are upset.

I think that friendship is an essential aspect of our lives because it teaches us unity, trust, understanding, and provides us with livelihood. It gives us a sense of self-assurance that there is always someone willing to be by your side whenever you need them. Friends help us get through the toughest times and make us laugh when we are frustrated. Life is already hard enough; without friendship we won't have that extra backbone when we need it the most.

Frienship is very imortant in a human beings life. Everyone needs a person to rely on when going through a tough time . Having a friend to talk to can help a person recover and make them feel happier. In addition, having a friend to make you laugh and just talk to makes a person who they are. If humans never communicated with anyone they could possibly be depressed, lonely, or just plain bored. This is how friendship is imortant in our lives.

Friendship is extremely important in our lives. Friends are there for me when I need help the most. Friends are the type of people you can hang around with and could tell them anything you want because you know that they'll be there for you. Sometimes, friends get into fights but that's life and you have to fix it because friendship is one of the most important things in life. And sometimes, a friendship including a boy and a girl could eventually graduate into something more than friendship like marriage. In conclusion, friendship is the most important thing in the world. Even if your best friend is a pet, your mom, or even your stuffed animal bear. And who knows, it could last a short period, or a lifetime.

I think friendship is very important in our lives. It is important because without friendship there would be little happiness. Whenever someone is down there friends cheer them up, but without friends they would stay sad. When people are sad they get depressed after a long time. No one wants to be depressed. Most people would be lonely and emotionless also. Most relationships starts with friendship, and without friendship they would all be lonely and emotionless. We would not be able to feel love or hate towards people. No true happiness is felt without friends, the only emotion that would be felt is sadness. That might be the worst emotion and that's the only one we could feel without friendship. The world would not be the same. This is why friendship is very important.

Friendship is very important in our lives. Some don't realize that if there was no friendship most of us wouldn't exist. Our parents had to become friends before they created us. Also if there want any friendship, the world would be dull and life-less. If we weren't friends mot of our things wouldn't be created. By the way, friendship makes you do things you wouldn't normally do and you find out who you are by doing that.

Friendship is always important. Every person needs friendship because without it they would be lonely. When you are sad or depressed friends are always there to help you out. Friends guide you and you guide your friends. For instance, my grandfather was in the hospital for cancer. I told my friend that and she gave me a hug and said everything is going to be alright. She cheered me up without even realizing it. Friends are crucial to your happiness whether you know it or not.

Friendship is very important to our lives. When we have nothing to do and we are bored, we go to a friends house. Friends lift up our spirit when we are feeling sad or upset. Friends are people you can tell anything too and they don't tell other people behind your backs. Life is hard and it only gets harder but friends are like that extra support that you can rely on when you need it.

Friendship is a very important aspect in everybody's lives. Having friends provides a sense of belonging and builds character and confidence. You can depend on friends to get you through tough predicaments or to just have fun times. Friends are kind of like family, but you sometimes do things with friends that you probably wouldn't do with your family. Your friendships shape how you live and act for your entire life and is a good thing to have so it is by far one of the most important aspects of living.

Friendship is important to our lives because it helps us create that special bond between one another that we need to develop trust. Without friends, we would all just be strangers passing in the halls like ships passing in the nights. Friendship is knowing you have someone there for you, that you can tell anything and everything. Its sharing special qualities of one another with each each other. "Life is like a box of chocolates, you never know what your gunna get"( -Forrest Gump) With that quote you can adapt that throughout life friends will come and go but the ones that stay and make the bond stronger are the ones that deserve the chocolate.

Friendship is a very vital part of peoples lives. Without it everybody wouldn't be the way they are. Friendship helps make connections, create and mold your personality, and for some its one of the rarest and most respected relationships they have. Even in Of Mice and Men there are friendships and strong connecting between characters (ex: George/Lennie Candy/Candy's Dog). If people in the world had no friends, then who would be able to help us, laugh with us, grow up with us. Friendship is more than a simple treat in life, its a necessity.

Friendship is what creates us. Friends have a hold on us that helps us find who we are as a person. People need friends as support, someone to talk to, be there for them in the toughest times of their lives. They are there to walk with you through live for as long as you live, helping you through every obstacle together. Think about soldiers in the war. Why do you think that those soldiers are alive? Because they had friends who had their back, who protected them. You feel safe with your friends. "“When someone loves you, the way they talk about you is different. You feel safe and comfortable.” That quote was by Jess C. Scott, who understood that friendship is really important. Everyone needs friendship, or we would just be blobs with no idea who we really are. The world needs people to love and call a friend.

Friendship is one of the most important things that we can have in our lives. Friendship gives us security. Friends are people we can trust. They can handle us when we can't handle ourselves. Friendship is important because without it, we basically go through life alone. People need friends to share secrets with, have fun with, and go through rough times with.

Friendship is an important part of life. Without friends in our lives there is nobody to pick us up when we are down or lift us out of sadness.Friendship pulls us together as one as nothing else could. Without friendship life would be a solo journey extended to be as boring as possible.Many are oblivious to how important friendship really is. Although friends will always go through hardships,and they may get separated,but in the long run everything will be forged back to how it was in the first place. 9/18/2014 11:37:20 am
Friendship is important. Without friends, you can go through a day with hundreds of people, and feel completely alone. you can get to feel so alone that you begin to miss the meanest people you know, just to have someone to talk to. Without it, we would go insane.Even one friend can turn your day around. Just knowing you have someone there is a life saver and you will feel improved. Friendship improves mood, lowers your amount of insecurity, and makes you feel like a new, better person. Even spending 1 day alone makes a day at school feel like a lifetime. Friends make up our entire world. It makes up people, society, and so much more.

Friendship is something very important in our everyday lives, even if we don't realize it. Friendship teaches us trust and loyalty, a best friend you could trust and honestly tell anything to and friends are always there when sometimes other people aren't. As people we sometimes take a lot of things for granted because we don't realize how important they are to us until they are gone. A good example i like to use for this is in the movie Toy Story 2, Woody and Buzz have grown a strong close friendship until Woody is taken away, and Buzz stopped for nothing until he found his best friend. In conclusion friendship is very important and is something we should love and cherish forever. :)

Friendship is important in our lives because without it we wont have someone to give you support in a time of need or someone to trust. When your day is going bad you can always count on your friend to cheer you up even if you just see them in the hallways. They will show you the right path and in a way have a great effect on our lives. Friendship also gives you a way to see a majority of different point of veiws in life by making friends who arent exactly similar to you in certain ways. Without friendship loneliness would spread like a virus. Being able to look forward to going to work or school becuase you know you will see your friends is what gets you through things you dont want to do, such as your job or school work. Our life would be boring without friendship and hard as well. Friendship is the secret in life to happiness.

Without friendship our lives wouldn't be complete. People rely on friends for help and without this people would be lost. Sometimes literally. Without friendship there wouldn't be very much to smile about, which isn't a very exciting way to live life. Every day people are being saved by friends even if they don't realize it. You rarely know if someone is depressed and cheering them up may just save them from ending their life. Friends keep the world spinning.

Friendship is really important in our lives because without friends we wouldn't have anyone to talk to and trust upon. Everybody needs a companion of some sort to associate themselves with. Friendship has taught us so much and friendship has been around for so many years. I think friendship is a really strong thing that hold two people together through honesty and integrity. Friends are the ones that keep us sane, sometimes. Without friends we would go insane and depressed being so alone and no one to talk to you to make you happy.
