朋友对我们非常重要。当碰到困难时,我们需要朋友给予鼓励和帮助:获得了成功,我们也需要朋友分享我们的欢乐。没有友谊的生活是难以想象的! 一个人应广交朋友。朋友越多,他的生活将更有意义。同样,一个国家也需要朋友。譬如,今天的中国,朋友遍天下。随着开放政策成功的施行,中国将会有更多的朋友。

此,根本的问题在于慎重交友。
It is not easy to make friends. Real friends are rare in this world. Man is a social animal and instinctively seeks companions. We come across countless people but with everybody we do not make friends. The essential condition of friendship between two persons is affinity of mind, tastes, temperaments or pursuits.
We can make friends if we love people, if we are good and sincere to them and if we share their joys and sorrows. We are to make friends if we do to others as we would be done by. Friendship is a matter of give and take.
There cannot be all the 'give' on one side and all the 'take' on the other. Equal sacrifice on both sides is a pre-requisite of friendship. True friendship is possible only between two equals in age, similar in thoughts, views and achievements. An old man seeks the company of an old man, and a student that of a student, a fat man that of a fat man and a pious man that of a pious man.
We can make friends if we are ready with our sympathy for others in their times of trouble. Adversity is the touchstone of friendship. Two friends are like one soul living in two bodies.
Friends made at school are life-long friends. They bring to us memories of those early days when life was young and free from all cares and worries. The friendship of Krishna and Sudama is a classical example of true friendship in our country.
