What's the defination of firend? The one who plays with you or the one who offer help when you need? This is where the controversy arises, Someone believes that one should chooes the people who having fun with you to be your firends. However, others oppose it cite that choosing a helpful firend is more important. From my point of view, I prefer the latter one.This kind of firend can help you make a progress and sweep out your troubles in our life. When you confronting difficulties, they are willing to make you overcome the troubles, One of the best example is myself. Last semester, I failed in my mathematic examination and frusted by it consirably. Once I  lost heart in my math and did not want to study any more. However,  my best firend Sally, who is remarkably kind-hearted, taught me the basic knowledge of math books and figured out my weakpoint. She never lose patience even if I ask question repeatedly and told it to me over again and again.  Finally I got an A in my math test. To my great surprise, I made a extraordinarily progress in my math course on count of Sally's current help.It is well saying that, a firend in need is a firend indeed. Those who just have fun with you cannot keep your company when you are a failure. Life abounds with such examples. Once there were many successful businessman who possessed a large amount of money. Many people like to make firends with these rich people and play with them, such as playing golf, holding a luxury party and celebrating some festives. Suddenly the business man was bankrupt for some reasons. Guess what? Those who once having fun with him all got away from him. Could we call them "firends"? The one who left to help him recover his busincess and provied him a hand at critical time seemed to be the true firends.We cannot deny that there are some advantages choosing firends can have fun with you. Most of the time, we get along with our firends in order to relax and entertain ourselves. We all like to spend much time with the one who always make us laugh and is fun to around. By hanging out with this kind of firend, we can to be in the moment and enjoy the pleasure of life.Considering all the analysis above, we may safely come to the conclusion that it is more essential to choose firends that can stand by you when you need help since they can help you pass through the difficulties and impover yourselves, though there will be some slight advantages by stayng with the one who can amuse you.
