Such an iconoclastic statement.
A friend in need is a friend indeed like many other even this relationship is not selfless. One cannot always be on the receiving end like wise one cannot always be on to the giving end. We all need each other this is the only root reason why I talk to you and vice versa. I don’t say it each time we talk but that doesn’t imply that I don’t mean it.
Can two people actually be just friends forever?
I have been pondering for the answer to this question for quite a while. In the past 1 year I have made some gem of friends and some foes too I have to admit this. However this is not what I want to discuss. Yesterday I was conversing with one of my "GEM FRIENDS" and he commented that I do not use to much amount of superlatives while expressing my feelings. Simply I don’t choose to.
Let me paint a picture for you. Imagine yourself 10 years older from now couple of wrinkles under your eyes and mouth. Married to someone your parents choose for you since after repetitive failure in love you decided to have an arranged marriage. You have two kids one a boy and the other girl. You become a "gharelu" person. You attend your child’s skit, science exhibition, annual event; sports meet etc. since you want to be a good parent unlike yours. You want to give your child all the happiness you were deprived off when you were young. You are among the top shots in your organization. This implies more work more responsibilities and more worries. You are struggling to find time for your family but this is a promise that you made to your self and hence you prioritize things and somewhat become proud of yourself. However you keep on ignoring your spouse since you strongly believe that person never understood you. Hence more worries.
So tell me then would you be able to spend some time for your friends.
Would you be able to pay that person same amount of affection as now?
Would you be able to talk to him/her for 2-3 hours at night with out your spouse questioning your loyalty?
Would you be able to share a drink with them once every week?
Would you come to there rescue when every thing in there life is falling apart?
(You will be more engrossed in collecting you own bits)
So my dear hypocrites there can nothing be in this world life "Friends forever". One day they or you will move on and get stuck tangled up in this cobweb called LIFE.
Hence think twice before making a friend forever ………………….
