21 November
Dear Diary,
Friendship is very important to me. In my opinion, there are certain qualities that are very
important in a friend.
First, a good friend should be humorous. Nothing makes spending time together more fun than
a friend who makes you laugh. My best friend is a funny girl. I feel happy when I listen to her
talking. We laugh at the funny scenes in the films,we laugh at each other’s silly mistakes, and
we laugh at ourselves as well. No true friendship can grow unless the people involved are able
to laugh together.
Sample
Second, a close friend should also be trustworthy. A true friend has to be someone you can trust with your secrets. Whenever I feel low, my best friend has a way to cheer me up . She was the one I turned to when I got a low mark in Maths, when I lost the game in the school sports meeting, and when I had a big argument with my parents.
Finally, a true friend should be honest. A good friend must be able to tell you the truth not only when you are right, but also when you are wrong. In fact, I am glad that my friend can always point out what I have done wrong. I might be upset at first, but when I realize that she is like a mirror which honestly reflects my mistakes, I have to admit that this friendship makes me a better person.
A friendship where both parties have all of these qualities will surely be a long-lasting
relationaship.It will enrich the lives of both friends.
