"Friendship is like vitamin . Makes the lung's inflate, fill the heart . Transforms the faded day in colors. Why does the friend brings this feeling ? It's difficult to explain." ( Excerpt from the site : Bons Fluidos )


How can we define friendship ? If somebody asked us about it , probably we'll don't know how to answer it. Friendship definition goes beyond our comprehension. Is something deep, only found in the bottom of our heart.

We from Not Solo , decided to talk about friendship because in every moment of our lifes, we have friends helping us, teaching us, making us stronger, making us happier and doing so many other things together with us. We know the value that our friends have and will always have. And we wouldn't be nothing without them.

Share moments, emotions, opinions and even peddling. Is scientifically proved that these acts make life easier and with less stress. Surveys conducted by the University of California show that people who have friends deal better with the physical and emotional exhaustion. "In practice, serves as an outlet for times of distress and anxiety at work or at home. People who deprive themselves of theses relationships tend to suffer more from depression and addiction." says Shelley Taylor, teacher in the department of psychology at the University of California and who authored the book : The Tending Instinct : Women, Men and the Biology of Relationships.

Another study done at the University, pointed out an interesting fact: women, probably because they look more to each other in time of crisis, can cope better with stress than men (who tend to isolate themselves). Speaking of pain, helps to narrow it !

Far from the stereotype of the perfect relationship, the friendship suffers your stumbles and icludes fights and discussions that teach us about ourselves and tolerance limits. First at all because in friendships, you can show who you really are, wich can not please everyone. And second, because the 'bosom friend' can speak the other things that he doesn't want to hear. This balance between affinity and discord open space to the other expose their weaknesses and respect the right to protect secrets.

Friendship is not only about good times. Sometimes friendship could be hard. But it's not bad. Going trought difficult moments strenghtens us and creat strong alliances that we'll take for the rest of our lives.
Well , this is something about friendship. We hope you all have enjoyed it and realize how important is friendship !
" The fellowship provides protection. Friends turn to resize the fears and loneliness. And of course, multiply the wins. "




P.s : We'll like to honor and dedicate this post to our bests friends (You know who you are!) because we would be nothing without them . Love you all (L)
