HAPPY FRIENDSHIP DAY

Today is Friendship Day(1^st August), and I’m missing my best pals, the good old days, the times we spent together and most importantly, the unforgettable memories. I have so many friends- the childhood friends, the school friends, the college friends, the neighborhood friends, the internet friends, and the friend’s of friends, but out of the league of those very special people there are few very-very special people whom we miss a lot on not just the 1^st of August but everyday in our life.

Ironically, Friendship goes beyond relationships because we hardly stay with our friends but our hearts beat for them. When the whole world goes crazy on complaining about us, our best friends will never have a single complaint, moreover they defend us. Out of our busy schedules, we still keep on sending a SMS or two to make our friends smile, we keep on shooting an email or posting a picture on the web to just stay connected, and when we feel its long since we have talked, we don’t shy away from calling each other in the midnight either. We share everything with our special friends be it success or failure, be it joy, job change, crushes or anything, that is so special about friendship.

Yet sometimes, when we are having the best times of our lives, we miss the presence of our very special friends and at that moment we feel like calling them and tell them, that you should be here, but we stop and say to ourselves- “my friend is not here with me because he is somewhere doing something more important for himself and for him to live a life what he dreamt he needs to do those things first then being here, we will share the better times soon again”, this is what the Friendship all about, its not about formalities, its not about complaints, its not about distance, but its about a true connection that binds us throughout our lives.

 

I’m glad to have friends in my life, and I’m thankful for their constant support in my life. Wish you all a very happy Friendships day and may you all always have those lovely people on your side called FRIENDS!! I’m dedicating two special songs on this very special occasion of Friendship Day here, hope you like it…God Bless And Long Live The Friendship !!

P.S. I miss my all the special friends, I miss the Gym workouts, the ladies sangeets, the Scorpio Rides, the chit chats, the movies, the college days, the roomies but what is so wonderful is that we are still so connected..CHEERS to FRIENDSHIP!!!           

DEDICATED TO F.R.I.E.N.D.S

If someone asks me about what I miss from the older days of my life then my answer will be very straight forward- "the very special people of my life- F.R.I.E.N.D.S". It's not that I have completely broken off with my good old friends but of course, the quality of time spent with them never seem to be coming back again and I miss it badly. I realized when we are in school we make friends and we spend almost the complete day with our friends. Those moments get over as soon as the schooling comes to an end. Soon, we start understanding the world, the people and the environment.

While we are in school, we make friends with each and everyone, but with no understanding other than that my friends play with me everyday. As soon as we enter the university, we start recognizing our friends in categories- something like Best friends, friends but not best friends and hello-hi friends. This subdivision mainly evolves with the kind of relationship we share with our friends and the time spent together. The bond of friendship probably flourishes the most while we are in college. In my opinion i.e. the age where we find the maximum number of friends to carry with us for whole life. Even I had such kind of various sets of friends but I have felt that there were various significant moments of life spent with all of them despite all the subdivisions. There are thousands of memories that comes to the mind with small small things we experience or see in our daily lives.

Its very often when we hear the name of our alma mater and all those friends start flashing in front of our eyes. Sometimes, an old movie coming on the television creates the deja vu from the past while we watched that movie in past with our friends. Then there are some songs, they always bring back the good old memories back. Like that there are so many different things that always pull us back in the memory lane and every now and then we remember our friends. One thing I have to say its not about the places or the things but its about the people, the very special friends who are part of our memories.

I have also realized the bitter truth of life that there is no certainty that we get a chance to spend the quality of time, which we spent together in the past. As we all grow, the work or the job takes us to different places, its not that we lose contact to our friends or we lose our best friends but we compromise on the purest relationship of friendship for career and the other comforts of life. Also, this is true that while we achieve something significant in career and life or we suffer tragedy, we always miss our best friends both for their support and for sharing the joyous moments of life. Such is the importance of friends in life.


On a personal note, while I listen the song- Rubaroo from the movie Rang De Basanti reminds me of all my friends. So, whenever you hear this song just think for a second that I remember you all :).

May You All Have The Best of Life & Long Live the F.R.I.E.N.D.S.H.I.P!!!
