This I Believe
I believe that everyone needs a best friend. A best friend is someone to talk to, someone to listen to, someone to cry with, laugh with, and remember old times with. If you didn’t have a best friend who would you do those things with, no one?
Having a best friend can benefit you in so many ways. A best friend will always be there for you. They are there to give you advice during bad and good times. It’s really good to have a best friend because they can make any issue easier to get through. My best friend has always been here for me, even when we weren’t really that good of friends. She has always been there when there has been problems with school, family, guys, everything. She’s always been there for me to give me advice and help me with my problems. That’s when you know you have a best friend, when someone will always be there like that.
A best friend is also someone that you can have tons of fun with doing basically nothing. I remember this one time when my best friend and I were really bored and I was staying the night at her house. So you know what we did? We watched old Disney movies and played kid board games like Chutes and Ladders and Candy Land. It was so much fun. We both felt like little kids again.
I believe that people need someone to talk to and the best person to do that is a best friend who will not judge you, who will always be honest with you, even when it maybe something you don’t want to hear. Everyone needs a person who they can trust and go to when they have no one else and that is what a best friend is and does. I have always gone to my best friend when I can’t go to someone in my family, when I have a problem. Best friends always give you the love, support, respect and honor you need when you don’t feel you can get them anywhere else.
How could you not want a person who will do all those things for you and fill in the missing pieces that no one else can. I believe everyone needs a best friend.

I never really looked at attitude as being this impotant. Now I realize that your attitude really does take effect on how you show yourself. I agree with you…Good Job

Nicolle,
Thanks for the important reminder about best friends. I agree that best friends not only bring out our inner child, but they also help us in life. My best friend and I have been friends for something like 16 years. Your essay reminds me of her. Thanks for sharing.
