Today, the first Sunday of August is celebrated as friendship day the world over.
Now, I've never been for the getting mushy over friends on friendship day Only.. so its as usual a day for me like any else. Though from the last couple of years I do look forward to hear specifically from a couple of friends. [Exceptions are there to every rule..? :P ]
I do ofcourse love my friends [who doesn't?!] as I truly believe its such a wonderful boon to choose friends in our lives... Such a boon to have relations whom we love without any force, any obligation... But yet, I have never felt the need to go shopping for cards & bands & celebrations on this day.
However since the past year or so with more & more friends reconnecting over the Internet, friends are constantly in touch in the virtual world.
Some become so connected, that life seems so good with them in it.
Among intelligent conversations, arguments, mad laughter times & a whole lot of things what normal friends do... we share everything; except the abnormality that most of them are miles & miles away.
Still they stay comfortable snugged within the heart like the old strong wiry creepers who cling to your heart and keep it binded! :)
Today, as since morning my phone has been beeping away with 'happy friendship day' messages & calls; I have been replying to each & every one of them, wondering that have I really made them happy for them to hold me special?
Thinking more on it made me wanna give into this day's celebration from my side over here.
Here's my small bit of acknowledgement for the wonderful friends that have touched my life & made it beautiful over the years.
Even with distances, arguments, indifference, cold wars, no talks at times... there have been/are moments of laughter, care, understanding, comfort & the realisation of a meaning each relation has brought.
To my most dearest friends, who are an important part of my life:
Thank you All for adding happiness, beauty & value to my life in every way.
