A World Without Racism is Loving
Love Towards Friends
There are many people in our life who support and care for us, including our friends. Friends are our chosen families, and they are there for us in the good and bad times. Friends can be people we have known for several years or someone we met a few months ago. Either way, they are the people we laugh with, cry with, sing our favorite songs with, share memories with, and more. When we have had a bad day at work, we call up our friends to cheer us up. When we receive good news, we want to share it with our friends, knowing that they will be happy for us.
There are many benefits to friendship, such as an increased sense of belonging and an improvement in our self-esteem and confidence. Friends show us they love us by encouraging us to live a healthy lifestyle and avoiding unhealthy lifestyle habits such as excessive drinking and lack of exercise. They also show us their love in ways such as taking care of us when we are sick and throwing us parties on our birthdays. According to the Mayo Clinic, health benefits associated with good friendships are reduced risk of depression, anxiety, high blood pressure, and an unhealthy body mass index (BMI).
