Greetings to all the Parishioners of SteemChurch.

I will start this post with this question:

Would you rent a lie friend?

In Japan, a company created a service that allows customers to book fake friends to take photos and post on social networks. The novelty promises to be an alternative for those who want to appear more popular on Facebook or on Instagram. The business also offers boyfriends and family members to participate in pictures of lonely people, according to a report published in March by the British site The Independent.

Customers can choose age, physical characteristics and style of the false partners. The service costs 57 pounds, around R $ 236, and entitles you to two hours of clicks. The client must also pay the friend's food and transportation expenses, if necessary.

This is not the first news about Japanese companies that offer actors to act as family and friends. In past years, the same British newspaper reported that Japanese hired strangers to play roles as boss, friend and spouse sometimes as weddings and anniversaries. But in the end, what would lead a person to hire a stranger to fake a friendship or a family relationship?

loneliness

Although the rent of actors seems somewhat extreme, the psychologist and psychotherapist Danielle Ferreira evaluates that one of the possible explanations for this is loneliness. "These people are supplying the need to have a real friend, I think what leads to that is the difficulty of the human being in dealing with their own loneliness, sometimes we put the responsibility to fill our void in others"

A Friend to not be alone

One of God's greatest wishes is to keep man company, to have fellowship with him and to give him all His love.

The disciples also felt that loneliness was upon them, tradition said that when a leader died, the group dispersed. Jesus warned him of the importance of being united and therefore would send a new Leader, THE Holy Spirit would be with them until the end.

Today I tell people who are looking for unreal friends: Jesus and His Spirit is the best company.
