Download Letter to the Editor About a Radio Programme

Dear Sir/Madam,

I have just listened to your programme about friends and
friendships. I’m writing to express support for this serious issue.

I strongly agree with you that friendship is defined in a million ways. Friendship is a relationship that has many dimensions and styles. Friendship has no boundaries and no limits. True friendship is built on trust and mutual support. Your real friend is always there to help you and expects the same from you. He does not judge you for what you do, but instead understands and supports you. I do believe that a true friend is a person who loves you unconditionally and will not try to change you. What is more, you never know when you will meet a friend.

It is no secret that friendships are based on trust, and if that’s betrayed, the whole relationship breaks down. Cheating, revealing your secrets and backstabbing lead to breaking up. Thus, we should admit our failures, practice forbearance and be willing to learn something new. And we’ll avoid breaking up friendships over petty differences.

To be honest, I don’t need a wide circle of friends. I prefer one or two close friends, even though I know many people and have a large number of acquaintances. And I am sure that having a small group of friends gives you a better chance to cultivate deep and meaningful relationships.

To sum up, I have to state that I am in total agreement with those who considered friendship to be a vital part of our life.

Yours faithfully, Margaret Brown
