Best Friend Sayings

It starts from when you’re too little to even understand what a friend means. Being closely held to chest by your mother and carried around for a walk in the park; you see another little baby and reach out to grab his/her hand. You two become best of friends and cry your heart out every evening when you have to part. And then when you grow up a little, you make many friends but among the many stands one, who always stands by your side, even if you cheat while playing. All in innocence of course! A little more age brings a little more maturity as you begin to understand and value the idea called ‘best friends’. It all seems empty somehow when they’re not around, and feels heartily full by just having to talk to them. They mock you and they play with you, they cry with you but they laugh with you even harder, they bear all your tantrums and still motivate you along the way; it’s impossible to separate them or even think of a life without them. Cheers to all our best friends! Here are a few sayings dedicated to them that are sure to bring a smile on your face as you think about them.
