When our family doesn’t trust us, when they don’t understand us, They do not try to understand this, we have depression. They just make their decision, without knowing it, what we want. Then there seems to be someone who can understand us. Then we make friends who are like family members.

When you turn to them instead of your family. Sometimes we have to make our own family when we don’t have a family to support us through our troubled times. Sometimes family hinders us instead of helping us throughout life. I lived a life without family and I have no kids, so I had to make my own family. Today I live with someone who has no friends and they are not tight with their family but I still have many many friends that makes up for both of our losses. They may not be the richest people in the world but my friends are nice.

You can choose your friends, but you can’t choose your family.” That line comes from American writer Harper Lee’s book “To Kill a Mockingbird.”

Now compare her words to another famous expression: “Blood is thicker than water.” This means that family will always be with you while other people — with no blood connection — may come and go.

Having strong ties to family and friends has long been identified as an important part of being happy and healthy. People need people.

However, if forced to choose which is more important, American researchers now say friendship is more important than family. Their new study suggests that friends may be more important than family members, especially as we age.

The study comes from researchers at Michigan State University. They found the importance of friendship on health and happiness grows as people get older.

William Chopik is an assistant professor of psychology at Michigan State and was one of the lead researchers in this study. He says, “friendships become even more important as we age.”

Friendship and family are two different things and one can never decide who is more imp in life, because you can’t leave any of them. Family and friends both stand with you in all the situations. Individual’s experience may differ. But for me

EK DIL HAI AUR EK JAAN HAI

“EK DIL HAI AUR EK JAAN HAI”

You may find family standing with you as your friends and friends standing with you as your family.
