Friendship, Name of the mutual need

Friendship is considered the strongest and powerful relation. I am not talking about the friendship of Male + Female, Male + Male or Female + Female, but I am talking about the all above mentioned forms of friendship. Mostly, it is considered that friendship is above all the relations. Friends are closer than brothers, sisters, children and parents. In short, friendship is the name of most superior relation. It might be so, but just in rare cases.
Mostly, some groups can be observed sitting on a big coat, playing cards, with the laughters on their faces, schools and colleges are the major institutes to find friendship. Life is incomplete without friendship. So, one can say, life is noting and meaningless unless you don’t have any friend.
Now, the question arises, which are the elements working behind this “Pure Relation” called “Friendship”.
1. In earlier ages, most of the persons, involves in such activities which they can’t share with there blood relations. For Example, relations with opposite sex, smoking in earlier age, fraud etc. So, to share the achievements in these departments friends are required.
2. In the Middle age, when people become practical, and has responsibilities of their families, they use “Pure Relation” to solve their matters, to get befits for their own, they use “Friends” and this exchange of using friendship continue from both sides. This type of friendship is one to one friendship. Do my work and in return I will do your job.
3. In old ages too, friendship continues. Now when the old people have much more sensitive hearts. They feel much, whey they have to face the bitter words from their own family members, they seek refuge under the shelter of friendship. So, they gathered, talk about their sacrifices, they done for their children, and in return what they earned.

So, in the light of above mentioned points, friendship is noting but just the name of need, there is no sacrifice without any purpose, there is no attraction without mutual interests, in short friendship is noting but a needed passion or relation. If someone needed a friend, then he will look for his/her personal gains. Otherwise, there is no need of friendship.
But we have the examples of too old friends. Friends who can not eat without each other, who can not join any party without the presence of other and who claimed one soul in two bodies. What is it? Are they really too much lucky to have a real friend or there is something else? It may be so that both are truly pure friends but even in that case, they too have some mutual interests and booth are needed for each others.
They could be trusted for each other and have loot of things/secrets to share.
They could be involve in different occupations and solve each others matters regarding to their field.
May be they have the same opposition and they have to be friends to face the opposition jointly.

In short, there will need of friendship but pure friendship is that which has no need from one or both sides. Friendship should be on the based of true emotions and not based on mutual needs. But if you find difficulty or impossibility to search for a pure friend then try to bring your friendship close to the pure friendship, at lease from your end you should not look your friend with needy eye, at least you should built your relations of friendship without any benefit or favor from the other side. And more important friendship must have limits and one should never cross those limits or boundaries.
According to me, the definition of a true friend is as “After my departure of this world, the persons those will pray for me, will be my best true friends”
