Friendship

While driving to office the lyrics of the song ‘Puraani Jeans’ drove my thoughts to the school classrooms and college corridors with friends around me, laughing, teasing and enjoying life purely and perfectly.

The moments shared, experiences felt, stories narrated, dreams discussed and feelings felt, all emotions somehow accumulated in one moment of life. The word ‘FRIEND’ to one and all reminds of joy, affection, sharing, caring, complaints, fights, screams and many more. May be my knowledge of adjectives fell short to describe this feeling completely.

Friendship is centric element of human life. We may have various relations in our life but somehow somewhere each of these relations accumulates to friendship. When a boy/girl crosses the adolescent age parents always assure them with the sense that they are now friends more than parents and hence the child can confide in with all his worries, doubts, queries etc. Teacher who is friendlier rather than bossy is liked more by students.

Friendship does not have any set defined rules of lineage or age as other relations have. Friends can be of any age, any background (financial, educational, religious etc). It’s just that the desire to share moments (good or bad) of life together that makes friendship to grow between individuals.

The biggest charm of friendship is that it is free from all formalities. The frankness to share it provides is the biggest gem. Friend is a person you open your heart with no hesitation, no presumptions, no fear. The love and care is felt from the deepest depth of heart and the complaints are just said and forgotten.

Friendship in a global way is solution given by HIM to human being for all their problems. The type of society that we are growing into today with crime, terrorism, hatred increasing at a disturbing rate, the solace that friendship can provide can definitely prove to be a savior.

Lets use this beautiful gift of GOD to heal, help, grow, learn and live a life to its BEST.

If human life is a garden and all the relations are flowers of this garden, friendship surely is the smell in all these relations (both personal and professional). On this friendship day I just wish this beautiful aroma spreads across more hearts and bless us all.
