    Through different trials and tribulations and defeating obstacles, there are always those people that will stand by you to help you through any problem in life, to be your support system or even go out of their way to solve issues for you. Those people are conventionally considered to be your best friends and considered the force behind you thriving in life.

What I meant by ‘but Franklin County’, I am actually referring to the wide varieties of different ethnicities and educational backgrounds that imploded into one single summer

Another less used response to the same question is someone who leave another better than they once were.

    All of the main characters fight for friendship even if they do so in different ways and for different reasons. All of them feel in need of someone to talk to if it is about science, about what horrible things one has done or about being different and alone. Another feature is the loss of friendship in all cases. Victor loses his friends to death, and so does Walton while the creature never really “fulfilled his dream of being anyone’s true friend” (Jeray 69). This way the novel not only shows the importance of friendship and having companions but also the possible consequences of either being rejected by everyone or of losing beloved people partly even due to own

    When looking at friendship in regards to a community an apparent quality that makes a community function is friendship. Both Aristotle and Kant make important points that are essential to what can make a community driven towards the common good. The common good is going too held up in most cases in the framework of a community by Aristotle’s utility friendship; the next two forms of friendship that are encountered quite regularly are Kant’s forms of friendship of need and taste. Between these three types of friendship one should be able to relate to an acquaintance type of relationship.

    Friendship is based on mutual respect and trust. When a friendship is betrayed it is one of the worst feelings that people can experience. Friendships that last from childhood through old age are some of the best in the world. Friendships that come about in times of adversity can be even more important as the people suffering the adversity have no one else who understands their situation as well and that creates an incredibly strong bond. When people, who have experienced these types of friendships, are betrayed after having been so close for so long or in extreme circumstances, the betrayal seems all the more horrible.
