A friend is family that you choose. They are the siblings we never had and the pillars who keep us steady through our worst times. There are some friends that you talk to everyday and there are some you might go months without talking to, but when you do, you pick up right where you left off. As we mature and grow, so do our friendships. Sometimes we forget to be grateful for the companion we have in our lives.
So, whether you’re looking to tell your best friend how much they mean to you or finding the perfect caption to accompany a picture, these friendship quotes are perfect!
