I DON'T HAVE FRIENDS, I'VE GOT FAMILY

Hello! readers 😊 This article is for my friends who play a very important role in my life. I am glad to have them in my life. I never got a chance to show them how much they mean to me. So here I take my chance.
What is Friendship?
Well, there can be many answers to this question. But according to my perspective friendship refers to the mutual relationship of affection, trust, cooperation, and support between two or more individuals. A good friend is a considered true blessing of God. We all feel comfortable in the company of friends. Friendship is vital to live life to its maximum. We can spend delightful moments with our friends. All of us need somebody with whom we can share our emotions. A friend is someone on whom we can place our trust. When the tide doesn’t seem to be on our side, a friend is someone who fills courage and confidence in our heart. Someone rightly said, “walking with the friend in the dark is better than walking alone in the light.”  And we can’t actually deny that, our friends unexpectedly do many things for us and we hardly notice them. I feel the same way every time that’s why I took time to write this special article for them.
The moments which I spend with my friends are precious. As India is a nation with many religions, it’s obvious to have friends from different communities. But in friendship, we don’t judge anyone from his cast or creed. Friendship itself gives us a best example of UNITY IN DIVERSITY. I have many good friends in my life. Everybody is different in his own way. Some are funny, some are naughty, but all are with me when I am in trouble and are always the reason of the smile on my face. Best thing about these people is that they know the difference between right and wrong. Whenever I am up for doing a wrong thing, they stop me and try explaining me how that thing is wrong. And this works vice-versa for good things. They never back out their support in between. Their support is one of the reasons I am writing this blog.
This was all about me. I was lucky enough to find these people in my life. But there are some unfortunate people, who are surrounded by people who don’t understand the difference between good and bad. You can see it in the society or anywhere around us we hear a common saying, “He is a good guy, but his friends spoiled him.” This sentence makes me feel melancholic. I tried searching for a reason why such things happen. I found a simple answer. One should choose his friends wisely. Many time, you could see, a guy started drinking alcohol and cigarettes after joining his friends. This is sad. And I think it is true that MAN IS KNOWN BY THE COMPANY HE KEEPS. All I wish for you people is to choose your friends wisely. And choosing friends wisely doesn’t mean start judging your friends with whom you are right now. This may create insecurities. And that is the worse feeling trust me.
Some people say, “I don’t know how to make friends.” This is the most foolish statement I’ve ever heard. There is no thumb rule for making friends we all know that. You simply need to be good with people and people will be good to you. That’s it.😊 And the most foolish thing some people do, is they forget their friends after some time. This is sad. How come anyone forget friends. I myself come across some people who were once good friends with me but they hardly talk. I feel sad. I still don’t get why this happens? Well, I hope one day I’ll find a reason for it.
Do you know who is the most unfortunate person in this world?
The person who has nearly 300 contacts in his contact list, but can’t call a single person when he’s in need. That’s why my humble request to all of you is that, the friendship which we share with our friends, cherish it and keep it green like a tree and always keep watering it with love and care.Over emotional times, I realize how lucky I am to have met and connected with so many people around the world, many of whom I consider good friends. No matter what time of the day or night, I will always find someone willing to hear me out, who knows me and is willing to offer a calm advice, a good word to lift my spirits up. This is the true spirit of friendship.
 Once a friend of mine told me the true meaning of friendship. I still remember his magical words. He said, “Our friendship is like a see-saw, not only because it’s fun with you. But also, I wouldn’t mind going down to see you rise.” I thank God for blessing me with you people. And I promise, I won’t let this friendship fade away because I DON’T HAVE FRIENDS, I’VE GOT FAMILY.
