A friend in need is a friend indeed.

** That's What Friends are For **

And I never thought I'd feel this way
And as far as I'm concerned
I'm glad I got the chance to say
That I do believe I love you

And if I should ever go away
Well, then close your eyes and try to feel
The way we do today
And then if you can remember

Keep smilin', keep shinin'
Knowin' you can always count on me, for sure
That's what friends are for
For good times and bad times
I'll be on your side forever more
That's what friends are for

Well, you came and opened me
And now there's so much more I see
And so by the way I thank you

Whoa, and then for the times when we're apart
Well, then close your eyes and know
These words are comin' from my heart
And then if you can remember, oh

Keep smiling, keep shining
Knowing you can always count on me, for sure
That's what friends are for
In good times, in bad times
I'll be on your side forever more
Oh, that's what friends are for

Whoa... oh... oh... keep smilin', keep shinin'
Knowin' you can always count on me, for sure
That's what friends are for
For good times and bad times
I'll be on your side forever more
That's what friends are for

Keep smilin', keep shinin'
Knowin' you can always count on me, oh, for sure
'Cause I tell you that's what friends are for
For good times and for bad times
I'll be on your side forever more
That's what friends are for (That's what friends are for)

On me, for sure
That's what friends are for
Keep smilin', keep shinin'

知心朋友是用金钱买不到的,是无价之宝。

朋友就是: 有福同享,有难同担,相互关心,
相互信任,无话不谈。

一个人如果没有了朋友,那活着还有何意义呢?

学会相互包容,相互理解,相互关心。

Friends add a wonderful dimension to our lives. They help us celebrate the good times, and they help us make it through the tough times.

在家靠父母
出外靠朋友
就算
天荒地老
还是
至理名言

Catherine said...

与朋友交往的时候,要坚持自己的主张,不盲从,不随便附和。这样的友情,虽然看起来像水一样平淡,但是却可以更加长久。

琪微 said...

友情应该建立在互相欣赏、互相了解的基础上。

citiding said...

用“心”交朋友
会交出知己
用“脸”交朋友
会交出。。。

对,友情平淡好过不长久。

jin1shu3 said...

说的是,
君子之交淡如水。

jiubo said...

交友之道,一目了然。
个人如能了解交友的目的,到处都是朋友。
要交朋友,本身必须认为是对方的朋友,才能一拍即合。
愿天下的人都有知心的朋友。

citiding said...

二位说得有道理。
交友,也要顺其自然,不可勉强;
合得来,就朋友,
只要有诚意,不怕没朋友。

huiru said...

对待朋友,宽容之心必不可少。

得不到友谊的人将是终生可怜的孤独者,
没有友谊的社会将只是一片繁华的沙漠。

琪微 said...

朋友不是用来利用的工具!

伟志 said...

我希望我是被朋友利用,
而不是我利用朋友!

citiding said...

huiru+无名氏
对己严,待人宽
是正确的做人态度。
做人没有朋友是很可惜的。

琪微+伟志
以平常心交朋友就好。

Liwan,
Good, since you are aware, I'm sure you can make it.
Remember, no man (or woman)is perfect.
