Happy friendship's day :)




Dated: 3rd August,2008


There are as many definitions to the word -“friendship”, as there are people in this world. Every one of us, have our own list of things we want in a friend; we have our own choices and preferences; our own lists of dos-and-don’ts in friendship and our unique ways of dealing with it. But the thing to be noted is, all of us have at least 1 friend in the whole wide world. Friendship is probably the first relationship that one consciously gets into, and it’s also the only relationship that can undergo the maximum amount of transformation with each passing day.

I have seen friends remain friends forever, friends become lovers, friends become lovers and then again good friends, friends become lovers and then the most bitter enemies, friends become “incompatible” after a year of friendship due to some technical fault ( read incompatibility between their wavelength of thoughts), friends become acquaintances due to the intrusion of another “fraaand” (generally of the opposite sex :P), friends become competitors (and then obviously no longer remain friends) and I have also seen friendship metamorphoses into hate.

But, the most important thing is that a friend always touches your heart the way no one else can, even if it is for a very brief period. Its funny, but this is the only “relationship” I’am scared of getting into, because when a friend breaks your heart, its hurts….. it hurts a lot. Probably that is why I have so many acquaintances but very, very few “friends” coz not all can break the barrier and get close to your heart : )

So, here it is, to all my friends, who have been with me whenever I have needed them, and also to those who had once been my "friends",and will always be a chapter of my life, no matter what.



Happy Friendship’s Day!!!

Hello!
Happy friendship day to you too..
spot on observation of "friends",as it's the most confusing relationship in this world,as any other relationship can be disguised with this word.

And Plzzz.. STOP COPYING MY THOUGHTS :P

This Jesse McCartney song has been my ringtone for more than a semester now!!!

Yes ofcourse.. u cant live without them.. :) but sumtimes, freindship doesnt need to be pronunced.. it can also remain in the heart and doesnt need to be expressed too much :)

@ tina- :) do i need to even answer that one? isnt the answer obvious???

Abhu said...

@debasish- :) thankz for agreeing with (i mean repeating)whatever ive said :P :P

@ tejal- there goes the famous discussion on whether feelings need to be expressed or not:I u know, even i use to believe dat its not very important to show your feelings, but recently, ive learnt that sometimes, u just have to express them aswell. it becomes mandatory.
