FRIENDS AND FUN TIMES GIVE YOU THE BEST MEMORIES IN LIFE !!!

 

” Close friends are truly life’s treasures. Sometimes they know us better than we know ourselves. With gentle honesty, they are there to guide and support us, to share our laughter and our tears. Their presence reminds us that we are never really alone.”  –  Vincent Van Gogh

‘Good friends are hard to find, difficult to leave and impossible to forget.’

Choosing friends out of the many acquaintances that we come across in a day or lifetime… It does not happen that way. How we get to be friends with someone and share all that we have with them seems to happen suddenly, for no rhyme or reason. Sometimes it takes on from a small incident and then you become friends for a lifetime.

But when you find a group of friends who share crazy ideas like you and who are with you in everything, then life gets to be a roller coaster ride.You share the ups and downs and when its time to part your own ways, you are certain that the beautiful journey has ended. But to your surprise, you find that these friends come back again and again into your life. And there!…you develop a lifetime bonding which gets stronger as the years go by and then it is fixed to stay !!

‘Friendship is all about trusting each other, helping each other, loving each other and being crazy together.’

This is not a hard and fast formula. Each one’s definition on friendship is according to the experiences one has with friends. Some make friends and drop them like a hat for no obvious reason. Short term friends are more in vogue now…the objective is over and you decide to move on.

But somewhere deep down, you always cherish the friends at school or college. Better still are the friendships formed at the hostels. The innocence, the age where you have golden dreams together, the frolic, the bubbly giggles – fun through and through. The naughty pranks, the never ending chatter, taking on punishments as a matter of pride all speak for the enviable freedom we enjoy.

‘A friend is someone who gives you total freedom to be yourself.’

 

True. A good friend or friends as a group share a beautiful understanding that they blossom out to be who they really are. They need not fake anything – without growing apart they can grow separately. There is no hard and fast recipe for these sort of friendships. They aggressively believe in each other, defend each other and think that the other deserves the world. They do things together and are always ready to find time for one another. It is not only fun and laughter that they share but  also honesty with each other, compassion and patience to listen to what the  other one has to say.

Yet,  in these sort of friends circle, there are bound to be times when the interaction gets to be less or almost non existent, as the others get going or busy with their own lives. You can’t seem to find the time to talk or get to see the other – maybe even due to distances. But eventually when you do meet, even if after a long while, it’s like you didn’t miss a beat. You talk out all those years or days in one go…there’s no gap in between. No space for a breather. You laugh until your stomachs hurt.  It’s the rarest of moments and better still, the rarest of connections.

“In the sweetness of friendship let there be laughter, and sharing of pleasures. For in the dew of little things the heart finds its morning and is refreshed.” ~ Khalil Gibran

IT IS SHEER, PURE MAGIC. IF YOU EVER FIND ANYONE LIKE THIS IN YOUR LIFE,  NEVER LET THEM GO !!
