Friendship

"Friends Aren't Made, They Are Born But Should Be Made For Life."

Friendship, we all know that feeling when we care for someone who is not related to us by birth. A special someone whom we choose to share part of our life with! A confidante whom we select and consider our own! It is often said being friends means "One Soul in Two Bodies".To share with a friend is the most natural thing to do.

No matter if you are happy or sad, hurt or feeling lonely first set of people that may come to your mind, of course apart from your own family, are your friends. Friends become the extended part of our family. A real friend is always there for you, no matter what a fool you have made of yourself, they are the ones who aren't scared to show you your real face, or tell you that you have been acting weirdly or stupidly over a matter.

In today's busy world, people seldom have time for friends, everyone is so busy with their own lives, their own issues, their own problems that they forget to keep in touch with their childhood or college friends. And in today's world people are far more stressed and complain of diseases related to unhealthy eating habits and stress at a much younger age. Why? Well simple answer is we are all too stressed. But what do we do to unwind?

Every one plans to take an yearly vacation to some exotic location for a week and unwind and relax from all the stress. But do you have to go far to relax when you can do it right here in your city and that too at your own home. Yes, with friends! Meeting up old friends always brings back memories of the good times share, relaxed times and the mischief and tantrums of those good old days. Reviving all such memories is said to have a very positive effect on human mind. They basically remind you of good times, make you laugh, make you feel happy and in the process relax you within a few minutes and this relaxation didn't even burn a hole in your pocket.

We are not born with friends, we make them when we are young but often we leave them behind as we grow up the professional ladder. The best way to have a friend is to be one! If we continue to be in touch, make sure we know what's happening in our friends lives, the bond will only grow stronger and we would always have an emotional support to fall back on in times of stress or mis-happenings. This doesn't require lot of effort, just pick up that phone and call a long last friend today and see how you would have made his/her day special. Friends are the most precious people we have in our lives, if you had put in effort to make them friends at one point of time, why not a little effort to sustain them for life?
