"Do you know X? Gosh, he is amazing. So is Y, she is my love. And how can I forget A, my sweetie pie and D, he is my best friend....but so is Z". This is the scenario of many youngsters when asked about their best friend. Nowadays, there are no big secrets, nothing that only one person knows, nothing that if  people come to know about it, you'll die of embarrassment. Everything is "public". Therefore, instead of one, people have 5 best friends, even 10. The meaning of the word "best friend" is lost in this world. Best friends are like our grandparents -they are always sweet to you; they are like our moms- they take care of us better than anybody; they are the sisters in our lives- they fight with us for every single thing; they are the brothers in your lives- always get you into trouble; the fathers in your life- they give us emotional support when we oh so ever need it; the aunts and uncles who live abroad- they bring all fun stuff to school and share it with you....only you; the cousins- they always hang out with you no matter what. A best friend has all the good qualities found in an entire family, for better or for worse. They stand by you no matter what and know you better than yourself.  They can finish what you started and you mean the world to them. Don't just sit around here, fooling yourself that you have 15 best friends. Look up, look away and find that one special person with whom you can Live, Laugh and Love :) :) :)
