The wise say that a friend is one soul in a different body. And your closest friend is your family. Perhaps, that's why friends lighten your baban, because in friendship there is no calculation.
There you learn to avoid things that you do not agree with, and always look for things that you agree on. That's also why friendship is power. Like a quote, living without friends, dying lonely.
