The proverb “A friend in need is a friend indeed” means that a true friend is someone who is supportive and helpful when you are in a difficult or challenging situation, and not just when things are going well for you. In other words, a friend who is there for you during tough times is a real friend, as opposed to someone who is only around when things are easy and convenient.
This proverb emphasizes the importance of having friends who are dependable and trustworthy, and who genuinely care about your well-being. It also suggests that true friendship is tested in times of adversity, when you need someone to lean on, and not just when things are going smoothly.
Overall, the proverb encourages people to value and appreciate their true friends, and to be a loyal and supportive friend in return.
