This one’s about a
beautiful relation called friendship. It’s about compassion, it’s about being
there for someone.
My first post on this
blog was about friendship. When I had written it, I was 24 and not as wise as I
am today. But when I read it, I know that I valued my friendships then and I
value them now.
A lot of people come
and go in our lives, some are there to cherish forever, some were an important
part of your life at some point and some were just seasonal.
I met a friend
yesterday. We used to talk everyday until a few years back. But life had plans
which made us drift apart. We went our separate paths, to cross each other’s
every now and then. And after growing some greys, and with every new “crossing of
paths”, I look back and learn – learn more about the person, learn more about myself.
Sometimes you learn
that the friendship you shared was more meaningful than you thought. That you
made a difference.
That you are still the reason for them to smile.
And that realisation
reinforces my faith in this relation every single time.
If each one of us
keeps our egos at bay, and holds on to each other, sometimes selflessly, with a
pure heart,
the world, I am sure, will be a much better place to live in.
the world, I am sure, will be a much better place to live in.
It’s a beautiful
relation – cherish it.
“A true friend accepts who you are,
but also helps you become who
you should be.“
