Life is a long journey, filled with meetings, making up and losing people. It is more about “Hallos” and “Goodbyes”. All along the pathway of life, we meet millions and millions of people who walk in and out of our lives. Some leave a mark, some leave scars and yet others leave a strong bound that is hard to be broken. Apart from our first degree relatives, there are other people who influence our life, change it and revive it without us realizing the fact. Of all the people whom we meet in life, friends are important of our journey. It is impossible to live a solitary life with no real friends to support and guide you in this journey of life. They support us, cheer us up and remind us of loving ourselves when we forget about the fact that we are important on the earth.

In the present hectic scenario, we all have that one friend who we can rely on. Somebody to whom we can run to when we want to cry and talk out your problems. Friendship stands out against all odds and haste of life. It’s fine, precious and pure. It is a comfort when there isn’t comfort, joy when you are in grief and relief when you are at loss. A friend plays an important part in our life. They are different from parents, siblings or lovers. They are unique and are worth treasuring. When you fall they will pick you up, when you are low, they will cheer you up and when the curves of your smiles are gone, they know just how to bring it back in place. In fact we spend 90% of our lives in the company of our friends and 95% of our memories dwell in friendship and love. It’s only with our best champs that we can laugh the way we want, behave like complete crazinesses, dance the way we want and still be the best in their eyes. There is no barrier in the way we have to present ourselves, no dos and don’ts and absolutely no restrictions in the way we have to be. This is the beauty of friendship that stands out against all other relationships and comes out beautiful and precious for everyone who experiences it.

As the famous quote goes, “A friend in need is a friend indeed,” a true friend stands right beside you in all your worries and pains. They can read your mind even if you choose to remain mute, they can feel the pain in your voice even if you choose to laugh and fool about. There are times when a friend knows you more than how much you know yourself. It doesn’t happen with everyone you are friends with but only with people, your heart wishes to merge. It takes time, faith, love and trust for people to get intimated with each other and as they get intimated they become one soul, inseparable and strong.

Shakespeare in his sonnet 30 says,” But if the while I think on thee, dear friend, all loses are restored and sorrows end”. The moment he thinks about his friend he forgets all his pain and sorrow. The very thought of the friend changed the state of the great poet of all times. Friendship is indeed a powerful potion that can conquer the senses of our body and diagnose us in a way we will get completely engrossed and lost into. The spark of friendship will write down great moments and inseparable bounds between people. Well, it is not in all cases that friendship stands strong. It is not with all people that it can stay stable and erect. There are instances when people know each other for a considerably long time but there never is an emotional attachment between them and there are yet other cases when people meet unexpectedly and then remain etched in our lives forever. Life is a completely complex puzzle that isn’t easy to solve but when you have the right people beside you, everything appears so simple that we never realize how we have walked so far.

We come across thousands and thousands of people of which hundreds and hundreds of them are friends of which many are close friends of which many are best buds and of which just a few are the Most Trusted, Heart Bound Friends. Not everybody that we meet in life are people whom we trust, people who we rely on. We meet many but a few remain, we speak to many but it is only few people from the crowd to whom we spill out our hearts to, we laugh aloud before many but it is only few who can see the pain behind the peals of laughter. We prioritize people in our lives based on our comfortablity towards that person, trust and love on that soul and the degree of importance we have given to that person. We definitely have that one friend who comes to our mind every time we are lost and lone, that only friend who is at your side when the burdens of life weigh down on you really hard, that one person who is always there to make you smile when you have cried your eyes out, that special soul who you can call up in the middle of the night and spill out your deepest sorrows, that one and only soul who will never change in spite of all the rumours that he/she hears about you and in spite of all your madness and stubbornness ,he/she will still think you are the Best.

On the other hand, it is not necessary that one should possess hundreds of friends to stay contended and happy. If you have that one friend who understands you, accepts you the way you are and puts up with your nonesense attitude, you are the luckiest and happiest soul on the planet. Friendship is not about quantity but about quality. Having few friends who are the best in the world and who are always available for you is better than having hundreds of friends who do not bother about you. Choose few. Trust the best. Value friendship.

“A true friend is like a shining star in your dark sky, always there to expel your darkness. Even as the light floods in, they remain still and hidden under the glow of your joy and success.”
