friend in need is a friend in deed

A friend in need is a friend indeed. A man who stands by his friend in adversity is a true friend. Selfless love is the base of true friendship. True friends share each other's joy and sorrow, pain and pleasure.

They do not fall off in adversity. They have full confidence in each other. They never betray each other. Prosperity makes friends, adversity tries them. A selfless friend is a blessing; a selfish friend is a curse. The first is an angel and the second is a devil. One makes your career while the other mars it.

True friendship means great self-sacrifice on the part of both. A true friend foregoes pleasure and convenience. He goes out of his way and faces difficulties in his way with joy and even with pride.

FRIEND IN NEED IS A FRIEND IN DEED.
