Unnecessary Friendships
“Friendship is unnecessary, like philosophy, like art…. It has no survival value; rather it is one of those things that give value to survival. ”
-C.S. Lewis
Isn’t it a wonder how some things are “unnecessary” and yet can be so profoundly elemental?
Update: Onyxx’s comment below is worth mentioning because it’s actually along the lines of what I was thinking of when I quoted that. It all comes down to how you look at things, in this case how you regard friendships. But then, again, maybe it is relative to the people you regard as friends. There’s no grand debate here, though. Friendlessness is not a social security disability.
