What exactly is friendship…
Just the number of likes, comments and friend list on Facebook does not guarantee u have tasted the fruit of friendship.
This word had always bedazzled me to such an extent that I gave al my might n my heart to make, keep & maintain the beautiful relation with my so called friends..
Friendship is more of a fancy among school and college kids, when their amateur minds are more open to bizarre ideals, and they consider the smallest gesture of care as divine. Their naïve minds speak, think and see the world painted in colors ruled by heart and ignorant to the LOGICAL & RATIONAL weighing machine.
A balance without any scales… that was the kind of life we once lived,, and what a life it was… personally speaking , friendship meant worship to me, and friend no less than god… but I was oblivious to the harsh truth, that all come and go..and in life if something is permanent – it is change… change…a small and simple word, capable of demolishing the castles of myriad and lofty dreams and expectations we had built from our childhood days… change can actually change anything and everything.. from U to me to entire world.. not criticizing ,, infact I like change.. but drastic change is my topic of concern.. change in behaviour of people towards their ONCE close friend is my concern….
People fail to understand that change is important for growth, but not for forgetting the main essence of our human relationships… change should be your boost towards success, not a stair to stampede on the people u met on the way..
Some may disagree by saying that as we grow, people become busy…. But I would like to reiterate that change is not bad, but drastic change is.. Similarly clarifying, its not the fact that to spend the same amount of time in human relations, but in respecting the human relations and giving the quality time as and when required.
Reinforcing, with my own example, my list of good friends call me almost once or twice in month, and few of them mostly call only on my birthdays… but the point is, that when ever they called, it was a conversation filled with genuine care and emotions, and can vouch on anyone, that when I’m in trouble, they’ll always be there…. I think this is what friendship truly is…
(PS : Facebook may help us in SOCIALISING but not in deepening our friendship bonds…)
