There are three different types of friendship, at least for me. 
            First one is that kind of friendship one has with people that grew up with.That circle of friends who share common memories and beliefs.Those  are the friends one can win in time because we cannot say that all the  people who took part in our developement were necesarly our friends; but those who were involved in different kind of activities with us 
and had a meaning in our lives. 
            The second one in that friendship one can have without caring for distance. They even proove to be better and closer friends than if in other circumstances they would have been phisicly ny our side.Those are people who care  for you though they experience other parts of life, differ from yours. They are able and more capable to support and advise you in various problems because they do not get involved directly to the action.This kind of friendship is more likely for people who enjoy having their personal time creating or caring for a familly and do not have time to go out for a friendly meeting, so they get in contact with their friends by e-mail or "now and then" online chats. 
            The third type of friendship is one involving the bond between  parents and their children. Now, this friendship is admirable because as a parent is hard to be aware of your child's problems and remain calm  in he same time. Most likely a parent is temped to solve the problem himself, taking away the child's chance to face the obstacles life can bring.I have to mention that this is valid for all ages.Parents should be like this from the beginning, building trust so when the child becomes adult, he wont make the mistake of running to friends of his age who could posibly advise them wrong. Having this trust earned he will find  it proper to go to his parents to get the answears he seeks. As I said is very difficult for a parent to stand in a friend's shoe but is very important for him to succide in order to get a satisfying  result soon. 
            There is another type of friendship that I could not include in today's post because that shuld be prezent only in serious cases that require such friendly relationship.In my opinion that is something completely different so we're gonna leave it for the next post which is "Friendship comes first" .Keep in touch
