Just because you say hello to someone in the hallways does not mean that they are your best friend. A best friend is someone who stands by your side, even when things are difficult. That may seem simple, but its hard to find people that will do that for you. Although when you find a friend that will stand by our side you should know that is rare and you are lucky to have someone that will do that for you.
I understand and connect to this proverb. I have experienced something that connects to this very well. Last year I thought I had great friends. We would talk at school, text, and hang out. Soon things started to go bad for me and I fell in to depression. I was confused and didn't know how to deal with what I was feeling properly. started to get hurt and I turned to the people I thought were my friends and to help me. But all they did was spread things about me and tell everyone that I was upset. Soon I started to start to feel hat people I didn't know understood my feelings better then I did. They were saying how I was just saying I was upset to get attention. I was devastated; I thought I had no friends and I stared to dislike all people. But then I opened my eyes and realized that I had one person that I could count on. This person never said anything about me, she always was there for me. When I would call her she would always pick up the phone and listen to me as I told her my feelings. I understood how lucky I was to have someone like her as a true best friend, because I new how I felt when I thought I had no friends. Although this experience was very long and painful, I am still grateful in a way that it happened. Now I truly understand that a best friend is hard to find and when you do find one you are truly lucky.
