Since the time immemorial, human has been a part of this planet where he thrived to live in groups and eventually evolved to be a social animal. Within the groups, there evolved a relation that has been termed by various terms that have different meanings. One of those terms, is friendship. It is not merely a word but a relation that binds people irrespective of caste, creed, gender and region. In this relation, people only have liberal views and utmost care for each other. Whatever may be the situation, everyone in this friendship group would be united and together; because they care for each other. Mostly it involves a €give relation€ rather than €a take€ relation. However, each one among the group, do feel their right to demand anything from others in the group.

One of the reasons, why this relation is still relevant and vivacious in present days' context is because of the trust that is developed among each other in the group. Moreover, such a trust is overwhelmingly increasing while the one among the relatives is decreasing for unknown reasons. Nowadays, people are dependent on friends rather than relatives for everything they do and care for. Don't you think that such a relation should bloom into a more mature form showing its relevance with respect to time? Obviously, it should, but everyone have their own reasons to share. Earlier, the friendship among two opposite genders was understood as love or soon-to-be marital relation, however it is not so in this information age. Moreover, such friendship is getting matured and understandable in an awesome manner.

In this information age, people are devoted to studies to get the best careers out of available job options. While pursuing their education since childhood, they come across various people and form an attachment with them. Few stay in touch for life-time while others wither away as burnt ash. Still people quest for a reliable friend, because how many ever friends one would have; its better to have a reliable friend who would stay with him/her in every situation. One would share their happiness, sadness, grief, anger etc, with a friend who would placate or advocate them. Moreover, when we are lonely, we feel a void of friends who used to fill our moments with their physical presence. And we continue to feel their presence mentally in our solitude.

With advent of modern smart-phones, people are in touch with their friends around the globe. However, it may affect the near and dear ones who stay nearby you if you are busy with your smart-phone. Naturally, it depends on the person by the way they use these phones. Thus, we can say that smart-phones are boon for those who are in touch with their reliable friends, while it is a bane for those who are still seeking one. Moreover, this technology has also given an option to form a group of reliable friends who always stay with us life-time. Hence we can term them and their relation as €Life-time Friendship€, which needs no warranty. This clearly emphasizes that indeed €Friends are Precious Stones€.
