From the deepest resources of your ditch of thought. Please tell me. Are friendships just a cordial relationship or perhaps bringing out the best from each other? What's your thought about this?
Does friendship means seeing each other everyday, maybe every week or every month or perhaps every year?
Do you raelly have someone you call a friend, not a very good friend, nor the better of friends, neither is the person your best friend, but a real friend.
Does friendship grows? Or perhaps it needs some growth hormones. Does it really have types, maybe the stunted growth of friendship.... et cetera. Or maybe friendship does have stages. Is it a gradual or rapid process, {i.e if it is even a process at all}.
Are you sincerly pleased with all the rapports you have?
Or you just have friendship because you've got a hidden motive you want to achieve from that friendship. And when that's done, it's buried in the grave of forget. Does one really need to have motives before going into friendships?
Are there friendships that are fenced with age? Once you've guaged the age, you've gotten the keys to the gate.
Are friends like our shadows keeping close to us while we walk in the sunshine when our lives are very bright and sparkling, but leaving us the instant we cross int a shade, into a dark room, into the most darkest moment of our lives.
Let's get out a bit out of the normal into the realm of the spirit. In there, I came across these ghostly questions.
Are friendships a sure prophecy prophesied? Do people pray for friends? What do you think about them? Are the very religious people the best of friends? Or rather, who are the best of friends?
Being in a friendship with a religious person, does it make feel safer or it makes you feel more religious in your religion. Do religious friendships stand the test of time?
It's somehow stuffy in here, let's get out of the realm of the spirit. Shuting the doors behind me, I walked past through the streets and shook hands with some of these questions at a bank.
Are friendships bought? Or perhaps they are very cheap or very much expensive?Can it really be bought for some pennies?
Are there superior or inferior friendships? Do you need to have superior friends? Or maybe, if inferior, just have lots of inferior friends.
PLEASE GIVE ME NOBLE ANSWERS.
I'M WAITING.

Well.. I consider myself lucky because I have really great friends. We have been friends for 3-4 years and we have a lot of fun together. It's even more fun when we know each other very well because then we can predict each other's responses to things and it just makes for a more intimate group. These are my friends at school and we are pretty inseparable.

There are also a lot of friends that I met in Oxford last summer. My school friends and I don't have much in common, but we still find stuff to keep us entertained. However, my Oxford friends are very similar to me and sometimes it's very scary how similar we are and our tastes (in music, etc.) I have a different sort of relationship with them - I haven't seen them for almost a year (can't believe it's been that long already) but we still do maintain contact and try to stay in touch with each other. These are definitely great friends that I have too because we really care about each other.

Then... there is one friend that I have who is the most special to my heart. My mom isn't very much of a 'mother' to me, and sometimes a girl just needs her mother. Circumstances have made mine bitter, angry, and she just never seems to understand or get things from my point of view. This friend I have (who is significantly older than me) is more of a mother-daughter relationship but regardless, we care for each other a lot. I do see her every day and I would do anything for her, and I think she would do the same for me. This is the first person I ever offered to say "I love you" too and I really meant it. We live in different "generations" but she still understands what I go through and the stresses of daily high school life and she just gets me. I don't have to worry about what I say or do in front of her because I know she will not put me down or anything like that, and she is such an inspiration to me because she is such a loving person.

These are just a few people that have impacted my life in such a tremendous way. No, friendship cannot be bought; it is something to be treasured and cherished and it is gift to you, but it is one of the greatest gifts of all. I'm not sure what you mean by friendship based on religion - I don't chose my friends based on their religion nor do they do that with me - we accept and appreciate each other's differences, but that is not the basis of our friendship. For example, I am friends with Christians, Jewish people, Muslims, Atheists... I don't look at them or our friendship based on what religion they are, I look at them for who THEY are. Does that make sense? Not sure if it answers your question or not but if not then let me know and I can try to re-word it.

Basically, friendship -- true friendship -- is the greatest thing ever and I would be utterly and completely lost without my wonderful friends.
