I read a story about “FRIENDSHIP”…..
In a class room, student asked”what
is friendship”?
The teacher said “Go to
field and choose what that appears nice to you”.
The student went to a
field and started scanning the field, he has picked many grains that suited his
taste and came back to the teacher.
The teacher told him “You
looked for one that is just nice for you, and did not look for the best. That is
FRIENDSHIP.”
Time never build any relation. If feelings are
truly from heart, then two people become friends.
Like I met my first friend at the age of 5.She was Sheela (aka Nandini). We spent
almost 3 years together in Adaspur, Odisha. As a kid no one understands what is
friendship….but still we were together, b’coz that made us happy. At that time
she was a charming gardener who make me blossom like a beautiful flower.
As per my father’s transferable job I moved to
Bhubaneswar. There I went to Saraswati Sishu Mandir School. I made lots of
friends. But again after 4 years I had to change my school b’coz of my father’s
transfer.
But thanks to Social
networking sites, I again get in touch with these friends after a long gap.
Graduation is a time when you got your freedom
to live your life on your own terms. For me graduation was an unforgettable
trip. I went to study computer engineering in College of Engineering,
Bhubaneswar. In this phase, your parent, teachers, siblings may
guide you….but mostly you need friends “oh bolte hain na dost hi hote hain jo
pass karne ko madad karate hain” (without cheating no one can pass exam)….just
kidding guys. Going to college, bunking classes, having fun @canteen, study
tour, picnic that 4 years each day was amazing.
Here I got treasure of friendship. I made lots
of friends. But some of them became special like Manasi, Madhusmita, Preeti still remain in my heart and they will
remain. I remembered we used to go Madhu’s place for group studies. Instead of
study we had fun, jokes, going movies on our scooties especially on heavy rainy
days. One could find our group easily @ Rupalisquare while enjoying chat and
gupchup.
Here I met one girl, Swati Swagatika. I met different
kind of people in my life. But still I never met a girl like you. You tolerated
my foolishness, my anger, my sorrow and my happiness. Its b’coz of you I
understood the responsibility of life. Thanks for coming to my life.
One more girl I don’t wanna miss. It’s Pallabi.
In 4 years of college we were just hi...hello friends. But suddenly after
marriage our bonding grew and still it’s going on…
Whenever I think of fun, naughty and kind, your
name and image instantly come to my mind. Thank you for being so kind
especially when I was struggling for my career in Hyderabad. I still remember
your words” Never underestimate yourself. With a small step you can change your
life. Have faith in god”. It’s you Amit.
Now living in urban city like Pune, where
everyone is busy day and night. Sometimes people don’t have time to spend with
their family. I got surprised to know from people that they don’t even know who
their neighbor is. Here I am lucky to made few friends who understand me. It is
said that a friend in need is a friend indeed. Thanks for sharing a cup of tea
of friendship, B’coz when we are thirsty, it’s our best choice right ladies (Sukhwinder,
Meghna , Gita, Hema, Shilpi)…..
Last but not the least, how can I forget you my
dear husband. Thanks for being my best
friend.
No need to say anything,b'coz you understand me.
Until through the journey
of life, I made lots of friends. Out of which I picked few and I may have
missed some, but still they have contributed a lot in my life. I wish all the
best to all of you and wish to meet again in future through the journey of life.
