The idea of celebrating friendship day started in the United States when World Friendship Crusade declared the celebration of friendship day on the first Sunday of August every year. The declaration was as a result of the reported case of a man who committed suicide because the US government killed his friend.
Today, friendship day is being celebrated in various countries of the world. Friends are a true blessing of God to us only if we choose the right ones.
