True friendship is a divine quality. To get a true friend is achievement rare now days. Someone is lucky if he gets a true friend. I am lucky enough to have true friend in Rakesh.' I value his friendship. He is really a true friend.
We both are class fellows for last four years. Rakesh has many qualities of head and heart. He is an ideal student. He is very punctual in coming to school. He completes his home task regularly. His books and exercise note-books are very clean. Moreover he has a very good handwriting. His behaviour is a model for other students. He is very polite, good mannered and sweet tempered. He never promises anything wrong to others. I have never seen him losing his temper. His uniform is always neat and clean. Though he is not a very brilliant student yet he always tries to improve himself. He always tries to learn from others. He is always helpful to others in his time of need and never feels them to be obliged.
He has a sound mind in the sound body. He takes part in other activities of the school. He is very good player of cricket. For last three years he is the captain of our school cricket team. He has won many trophies in inter school and district level cricket tournaments for the school. He is a very good debater too and had taken part in inter school debate competitions.
He is a friend in need. During my recent illness he spent many a sleepless nights sitting by my side throughout the night. He is a great help to me in my studies also. He hails from a very rich family while I am from a middle class family. But he never boasts of his riches and feels proud of it.
All these qualities of Rakesh make him an ideal friend. I am proud of him.
