The Great Part of Having a Lot of Friends
Friends are the greatest thing to have come along since the cave man days. During my lifetime, I have accumulated a large group of friends, and I love them all. The larger the group, the more fun you can have. Just think of the fun you can have going camping, or to dances, with a lot of friends that fit in and get along with each other. The possibilities are endless.
Having many friends at a time seem easier to form good times, rather than having just a few friends. I know that just a few friends can get together and have a lot of fun as well. I'm not knocking that, I just feel that the more friends there are, the better it is.
One of the best parts of having a lot of friends is that if someone in the group is having a problem, the rest of us can step in and help, physically, and emotionally. Having someone with you during hard times is priceless. You can feel the love surrounding you when you need the emotional help.
You can have the emotional help on your side, or you can be there to give an emotional boost when someone close to you needs it. The feeling of helping someone when they need it is beyond explanation. It's a feeling that makes you feel all warm inside.
Just imagine if you will, about 50 of your closest friends getting together at the beach, or a barbecue. No matter how many are there, you will always find time for each other on an individual basis, at some point during the day. Everyone gets along with each other, and all there is, is a lot of fun for all.
At the end of the day spent with this group of friends, you can go home and think about what a special time you had, and the memories you have collected during your time spent with your friends.
Every one needs a close friend at one point or another, during their lives, someone that will be with you no matter what is going on. Close friends are there when you are going through good times, as well as the sad points in ones life. No one is an Island, and we should not try to deal with everything that comes along, alone.
For myself, I would rather have a lot of friends, if one is busy, you can always find someone that is not busy. I feel that I have been blessed, because I have a lot of friends. I love everyone who is around me, and no matter what mood I am in, or what mood they are in, or what is happening around us, we will always have someone around us, that we love dearly.
