Friends are a pretty important part of most people's lives. Research shows that having quality relationships increases your likelihood of being happy

A good friend might be someone who's there to provide support when times are tough, or someone you can rely on to celebrate a special moment with you.

You might see them every day, once a year, or less. You might hardly see them at all but instead keep in touch via telephone, email, or online.

Friends might come and go in your life, they might make you laugh and cry, but most importantly of all they love you for who you are. It doesn't matter what a person looks like or what kind of clothes they wear, but it's what's on the inside that counts. It's the actions they take, no matter how big or small, to show you how much of a good friend they are, and being there for you no matter what, even when things are incredibly important!
