Friends

Jaise chai ke liye toast hota hai, Vaise har ek friend jaruri hota hai

Kabhi hasane ko  to kabhi satane ko, Kabhi jo ruthe to fir se manane ko

Har ek friend jaruri hota hai

         We all need friends, because we want to share good time and bad. No one can live in isolation; we are human beings and have strong feelings for expressing and sharing our emotions with each other.

        Friendship is a bond of trust and understanding. We not only share joys and sorrows but also bear a great responsibility – responsibility of knowing the other person, understanding and believing in that person and more importantly letting that person to believe in you, to trust you and to understand you.

        We can become friendly with anyone in few minutes but real friendship bonds evolve with time, not only with quantity but with quality of time that we share with each other. It evolves not only with good experiences but with bad experiences too. Sometimes bad experiences and issues help in making bonding stronger. The trust and understanding are signs of maturity and in a way or other it gets reflected in our attitude.

         Apart from the responsible and serious part, friendship has very light side too. It makes our life cheerful and colourful. Every joy gets doubled with friends. Every normal happening becomes an occasion. In contrast, every sorrow gets halved when you have friends around. For example, if I take myself - I have couple of such friends from school, college and workplace, with whom I don’t need any reason to celebrate. I don’t need to be formal- it feels like being completely me. They have the art of being biggest criticizer and supporter at same time.

      They are the ones with whom I fight most; I tend to differ a lot still they are the people for whom I care a lot. Most of the time they enjoy pulling my leg (I am also not second to anyone in this ;)), but they are the ones whom I trust most. They are the ones I can look towards whenever I need them.

      Most of the time people say that we develop friendship with whom we share common interests and hobbies but in my case this is quite different. Most of my friends share complementary interests with me and may be because of which I learnt a lot from my friends and we never get bored of each other ( just kidding :P).

      My friends are very special to me. They complete my life and make all achievements meaningful. It is their love and support that make everything possible. I want to say thanks to them but because there are no thanks and please in friendship I just want to say to my friends that “ you all are very special and always need you in my life” :)
