A friend is one of life’s greatest gifts. In good times and bad times, a friend remains reassuring and faithful to the end. A friend lends a hand without being asked, encourages growth, and supports change. Time and distance can not diminish friendship. It is forever. My particular friend fits all of these characteristics and many more. She is a true friend under any circumstance. For many years my friend has been there for me. Her actions prove to me how much she really cares for other people. She was always willing to lend a hand, especially when it came to any type of homework or studying.
