Hive Open Mic Week 117: True Friends

Hello everyone! It's another week of joy and another week to be jolly as Hive Open Mic Week 117 comes along. I am truly excited every time.

So for this week, the theme is True Friends . There are a lot of songs about true friends, but I choose "Umbrella by Rihanna". When I first heard about this song before, it seems like it can't be connected to friendship, but as I try to understand the song, even more, I realized that the friendship that the song holds is so firm that one could analyze it's a true friendship.

There was these lines from the song that say:

When the sun shine, we shine together, Told you I'll be here forever, Said I'll always be your friend, Took an oath, I'ma stick it out to the end, Now that it's raining more than ever, Know that we'll still have each other, You can stand under my umbrella

Based on that line, we can say that the friendship that they hold is firm enough that no matter what happens they will stick with each other.

Furthermore, the song will teach us a lesson that true friends will stick by our side through thick and thin. They will never leave you in vain, nor forsake you whatever happens. They are there through the sunshine and even the storms in your life. They are truly a blessing from up above.

So if you have true friends in your life, never take them for granted. Cherish them forever as they are worth cherishing. May the friendship that you have will continue to be stronger and will never be broken even if adversities arise.

Thank you for listening! Have a great day ahead.
