What are friends?

So here's the thing i want to know what is the difference in this day and age between a friend and an acquaintance?
When i was growing up a friend was someone you hung out with or talked to on a regular basis, now well im not even sure anymore 🙃

We have great friends who will do almost anything for each other. My friend drove me to the doctor last week so Lynn wouldn't have to. He will also pick me up from the hospital after my surgery later this week. Another friend will feed us that night.

@olderuncle944 Surgery will be Thursday. Lynn is fine. She doesn't like to drive in Houston traffic, so I was glad my buddy helped out.

@exexec It is great to have good friends they are hard to find and harder to keep.
