    True Friends: The Treasure of Lifelong Bonds

    Hi to all, hope you are doing good. Thanks for showing interest in my blog, keep visiting, liking and leaving your comments. Would love to connect.

    Today was thinking about a friend very dear to me so, thought to pour out my feelings about the importance of having a true friend.

    So, why do you think we need a friend? Why are friends so important? Who is a real friend?

    A real friend is one who walks in when the rest of the world walks out. – Walter Winchell

    A friend is a boon in anyone’s life. This is the only person who you select on your own by your own choice. This person is one, who doesn’t really judge you and neither do you. He/she is that one person you would love to pour your heart out without a doubt. A true friend is like a therapist, who hears you when you need to share something heavy or a soother when you are ailing. This person is someone, who without a thought will help you pour out whatever you have in you. He/she will then try to make you understand whether what you feeling is right or wrong. That’s what a true friend does. Do you guys feel the same?

    True friendship isn’t about being there when it’s convenient; it’s about being there when it’s not

    It is a boon to have that 1 friend in your life, with whom you can share your thoughts or clear your thoughts with. The best part of a friend is like, even if you don’t talk to that person each and every day once you talk, you connect like you were never disconnected. The best of friends will fight and reunite cause if there is no fight then it means you are not tight. A true friend is your best critic and an admirer too (very rare LOL), that’s why he/she is your best friend. Don’t you agree guys? For me friends hold a very important place in my life. I treasure my friends and always keep them very safe in my heart. Having a friend in life is like keeping the child in you alive. With friends you don’t have to behave in a certain way, rather you can be your freest self. You don’t have to think and speak, you are not calculative, manipulative, organized … You can just be you, and you can take that privilege with your friends always.

    The best time to make friends is before you need them Ethel Barrymore

    Friends are never chosen by your needs they come along when you desire to have one. When you connect with a person in some way or the other you welcome a friend in your life. Also, true friends can bring a spark in your life in your darkest phase and pull you out from it. Their trust in you and the love for you keeps you connected with them though, you don’t have any blood relation. Friends come into your life with a purpose, to keep the inner child in you alive forever. You know you have a true friend when, you can feel your pain in their eyes and see your joys in their smile. I value friendship a lot and have many friends in my life, I respect their being in my life and so do they. The feeling of being a friend to someone is so nice that it’s beyond an explanation. When you are the person in that friend’s life who brings a smile on their face is what a true friendship is.

    Let me tell you a story of a friend of mine. When I was down with a severe COVID in the second wave, and I was struggling with it badly but fiercely. One night was really tough in that period, and I had really given up on my fight as it was really bad. That night I said a small prayer and gave in to the supreme power to take a decision for me. I don’t know that time I fell asleep, or I passed out. But next day when I woke up, I got a video call from a very dear friend of mine, and I was still lying on my bed and struggling to talk to her. She said, ‘you look so unwell I don’t like seeing you like this, you take care will talk to you later’. And while she was disconnecting the call I saw her wiping a drop of tear from her eye. That one gesture made me feel so good that it gave me a new zeal to fight back. So, this is the power of a true friend, they can bring that one spark in you that lets you overcome your fears and doubts.

    Friendship is like a treasure, its value is hard to measure,

    It becomes precious day by day, and makes you wealthy in a unique way.

    This was my story, and I hope you have your one too. Would love to know about yours. Please feel free to share that one person you get back to, when you are at your most vulnerable self. Would love to hear your story as well.

    Ciao.
