Hello distinguish steemians:
This is another opportunity to share with you matters related to the heart: friendship the most beneficial and best form of relationship among all other forms of relationship.

Before I proceed, I will like to enlighten us on relationship and friendship base on our contex of discussion.

What is relationship?

Relationship is the coming together of two or more parties to form a bond or union towards achieving a set goals.

What is friendship?

Friendship is one of the kinds of relationship which is the mutual affection between two or more parties.
It is the best and most strongest among all the kinds of relationship, a true friend must be someone who understands you, loves you unconditionally and accepts you for whom you are despite your weaknesses, and also sacrifice everything even his/her life just for the safety of the other.

A perfect example of true friendship is that of Jesus who for the sake of mandkind died just to set us free from sin and death as recorded in the gospel of John 15:13

Greater love has no one than this, that he lay down his life for his friends. Berean Literal ... The greatest love you can show is to give your life for your friends.

And also that of david and johnathan the son of saul king of Israel who for the safety of david gave his life just to safe david from death as recorded in 1 Samuel 18:3-4

Jonathan made a covenant with David because he loved him just as he loved himself. Jonathan took off the robe he was wearing and gave it to David. He also gave him his military clothes. He even gave him his sword, his bow and his belt.

The two example of friendship above correctly demonstrate the best kind of friendship.

Now in our todays world, do we still have true friends?
The answer is yes, they is true friend, but they are few.

Imagine:

• If your husband or wife is your friend.
• If your boss in your office is your friend.
• If that your business partner is a friend to you.
• If your mum or Dad is your friend.
• If your neighbours are your friends.
• If your lecturers or students are your friends.
• If all your steemit followers are your friends. etc.

If all the above mentioned set of people are your friends, they will be no critical issues in our society, and if they is, it will be resolve ammicably and you also will get the best out of life at ease.

Establish a true friendship with the people within and outside your 360 degree relationship and you will have a taste of a joyous lifestyle.

Don't just be in a relationship, let friendship be the number one priority in your relationship and you will get the best out of that relationship.

Show me your friend and I will tell you your true personality.
